- By A.J. Ryder on March 24, 2014 16:22 GMTCity weren’t able to fulfill their goal of progressing in Europe despite getting some decent results along the way. The side is playing good stuff in the Premier League but there has been an element of inconsistency to them at times this season and you can see that weighing them down. When City win, they tend to win big but there are instances where they struggle to get organized and pick up the pieces.

At this point, you reckon that David Moyes may actually try to be tactically astute and do something that City won’t exactly be expecting - something like deploying Fellaini up front as a target man. This may not happen as the Belgian might be needed to shore up the backline with Michael Carrick the way they did in the last fixture. You have to wonder whether that is going to work against a team of the calibre of Manchester City, but there must be some sort of tactical nous used here considering the absence of Robin Van Persie.
Punters will find Wayne Rooney listed as the most likely Manchester United goalscorer with a price of around 15/8 anytime - which is a great price on the England player. Juan Mata is an interesting 10/3 to score at any point while Danny Welbeck is very much in the mix as well with a 9/4 price.
Manchester City have Alvaro Negredo priced at 6/4 alongside Eden Dzeko for an anytime goal. There are a lot of potential goalscorers in that side and Negredo will likely give the makeshift Manchester United defense a torrid time. David De Gea will need to be on his game on Tuesday.
United are the 23/10 underdogs against Manchester City’s 6/4 listing for the outright victory. The draw is also priced at 23/10 and could be great value if things are a lot less exciting than we assume that they might be.
