You have to pinch yourself to believe it, but this derby of Manchesterwhich is a real event in England, will feature two of the most disappointing teams of recent months. On the one hand, City, a machine so well oiled in the past and completely stalled for weeks since Pep Guardiola’s team has just conceded 7 defeats in its last 10 matches in all competitions.
On the other, United, a drifting ship that has been sailing in troubled waters for years and is unable to return to the surface. The arrival of the promising Ruben Amorim had revived hope in the environment of the most successful club in England, but the last two setbacks brought the young Portuguese technician back to the reality of the moment. In short, this Mancunian derby will be a question of supremacy, but it will also sound like a burst of pride for the winner. The stage is set.
The expected compositions
Manchester City : Ortega; Walker, Dias, Simpson-Pusey, Gvardiol; Gundogan, Silva, De Bruyne; Foden, Doku, Haaland.
