Who will win the Manchester derby on October 2nd?
It is time for the annual Manchester derby on October 2nd as Manchester City will play against Manchester United on October 2nd. It is going to be an extraordinary game, not only because it is the typical derby, but because Manchester United has turned into a very solid team and the best team in the Premier League looking at their most recent five matches.
Manchester City has incredible players, but they have still wasted quite a lot of points by playing draws against poorer teams. What will happen? Will Manchester City break the winning streak of Manchester United? Or will Manchester United make Manchester City their next victim?
Manchester United has played six matches and they have 12 points. Manchester City has played seven matches and stands with 17 points. If we take into consideration that Manchester United will win their remaining match, and if they will beat Manchester City, they will actually be ahead of them on the Premier League standings sheet.
Of course, they are two victories away from that, but if they get started, they aren't far off either.
What do you think? Do you believe Manchester City will mess it up and give Manchester United some easy goals, only to fight like wolves to turn back at them? Or will Manchester City control the ball and the game and turn this into an easy win? In the last seasons, Manchester City has had a very good grip on Manchester United, but maybe that is about to change?
I would love to hear your thoughts!
