Match Preview
As Manchester City prepares to host Manchester United at the Etihad Stadium on Sunday, the stakes are high in this fiercely contested derby. City enters the match in strong form, having won four of their last five fixtures, with their only setback coming against a resilient opponent. In contrast, United's recent performances have been less convincing, managing just one win in their last five outings, which includes three draws. This disparity in form could play a crucial role in determining the outcome of the match. One key angle to consider is the attacking prowess of both teams. Historically, matches between these two sides have been high-scoring affairs, with eight of the last ten encounters seeing over 2.5 goals and both teams finding the net. City’s attacking trio will be eager to exploit United's defensive vulnerabilities, while the visitors will look to capitalise on any lapses in concentration from the City backline. With both teams capable of producing moments of brilliance, fans can expect an exciting clash filled with attacking intent.
