Manchester City vs Manchester United Betting Preview PT 2

Getting a victory over their arch-rivals, however, would definitely be a welcome change of pace at United and if they can pull off a victory at City then Solskjaer will have definitely proven that he can stop the bleeding. The issue is that he often doesn’t seem to be able to manage his way out of problems - usually relying on his players to conjure something up. 

Taking a look at the odds for this one you’ll find that the bookmakers think City are the distinct favourites here and you’ll find them trading at a short price tag of around 10/29 with several top books. There isn’t a huge amount of value on them outright and you’ll note that there are plenty of punters who will likely back them to draw the first half and win the second to provide a bit of extra value. 

There will be a lot of potential match winners on the pitch here and you can expect a goal to come from virtually everywhere. City have been shipping a lot more goals than normal over the past couple of weeks and Marcus Rashford showed in their last contest that he is in a very rich vein of form. 

Manchester United trade at around an 8/1 price tag to get the victory over Manchester City and even with the Red Devils not playing their blockbuster best the past couple of seasons, it is very rare to see them trading at such a lengthy price tag. 

The draw trades around a 9/2 price tag and that would probably suffice for Manchester United - and it could wind up spelling more doldrums and lost points for Manchester City.
