Manchester City vs Manchester United Preview
Both teams are in the midst of a truly apoplectic run of form and need to turn around the situation as soon as possible. Past form always goes out the window when it comes to the Manchester derby. Manchester United defeated Pep Guardiola’s men in the 2024 FA Cup final despite finishing 31 points behind them in the 2023–24 Premier League standings. With Manchester City still struggling with injuries and Manchester United still finding their footing under Ruben Amorim, the first Manchester derby of the 2024–25 Premier League season is very hard to predict. Man City have the perfect opportunity to get their season back on track against a squad that are prone to being used as a springboard, making for an intriguing showdown.
