Man United vs Man City prediction and odds ahead of the Manchester Derby in the Premier League

Manchester United have the chance to leapfrog Newcastle to third and cut the gap with rivals Manchester City to just a point if they can pick up a home win against their local rivals for the first time in four meetings in all competitions. Erik ten Hag suffered defeat in the reverse fixture back in October in a match that saw nine goals at the Etihad Stadium plus two hat-tricks courtesy of Erling Haaland and Phil Foden.

City are the favourites ahead of the derby at 5/6 with Betfred with United at 3/1 to cut the gap between the two sides to just a point and a draw is 11/4. Pep Guardiola's side will be looking for a league double for the sixth time when they make the short trip to Old Trafford with the chance to cut the gap with Arsenal to just two points - for a day at least anyway.

Guardiola will be keen for his side to improve after suffering a shock defeat to Southampton in the EFL Cup at St Mary's. The loss is the first time Spaniard was knocked out of a domestic cup quarter-final in his managerial career.
