Manchester City stand at the 4th position with 15 points less than leader Leicester City. Despite that fact, home side are still candidates for the title because they have two matches less, but even if they win both it’s hard to believe that they can win the trophy. At least they want to finish the season in the Top 3 and qualify in the UEFA Champions League directly. However, this is the big match, city derby, and they will be fully motivated to beat Manchester United. Home team are not in the great form. In the last 4 matches in all competitions they have managed to win only one game and it was the victory against Aston Villa 4-0, the worst team in Premier League. In the last two matches they failed to score, so this could be the great chance and the best possible moment to hit the net, at least once.

Manchester United stand at the 6th position and their main goal is to reach the Top 4 and play in the UEFA Champions League next season. They didn’t make the good start of the season, but they have improved their performance and moved up at the table. Their recent performance is not at the high level. In the last 4 matches they failed to win, so they will be fully motivated to make good result against city rivals. Visitors are little bit tired and that could be a big problem for them. The match against Manchester City will be their 4th match in the last 10 days. Liverpool eliminated them in the 1/8 finals of the UEFA Europa League, so their motivation are not at the high level, but in the match like this, they have to do their best in order to make positive result against Manchester City.
