Manchester City will play Manchester United at the Etihad Stadium tomorrow. The latter has the upper hand because they have a good record on away turf.
The Red Devils good record at the Etihad is no coincidence. It is no doubt that the 20-times Premier League champions will sit deep and allow Manchester City to have the ball.
Subsequently, the Citizens will leave spaces at the back and Manchester United will break them on the counterattack.
The English giants are one if the deadliest teams with counterattack through the front three of Marcus Rashford, Anthony Martial and Jadon Sancho.
According to Manchester United official website, the Red Devils have won five times in their last visits at the Etihad Stadium, whilst the Citizens have only picked up two wins, this includes their 4-1 thumping last season. Both clubs have drawn two times between them.
Manchester City is currently on second position on the league table with 17 points, having played one game more than their noisy neighbors. On the other hand, Manchester United sits on second spot with 12 points having a game in hand.
A win for the Red Devils could see them leapfrog Manchester City on the league table, in the event that they also win their game in hand.
Furthermore, Manchester United will make a big statement in the event that they beat their noisy neighbors. The Red Devils have already won against the likes of Liverpool and Arsenal.
The match is set to take place on Sunday on midday.
