Manchester United have the chance to put their European disappointment behind them when Manchester City visit Old Trafford in Saturday’s big Premier League clash.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s men were knocked out of the Champions League after a 3-2 defeat at RB Leipzig on Tuesday, although they will be optimistic of bouncing back against their local rivals.

Manchester United vs Manchester City Preview
Having looked all but sure of a knockout stage place with two group games to go, the Red Devils will feel slightly shell-shocked after slipping into the Europa League following their collapse in Germany.
In a way, this game represents the perfect opportunity to go some way to putting things right against an opponent they have enjoyed the upper hand over in one-off matches of late.
They should feel even more confident considering Pep Guardiola’s team has not looked particularly impressive on the road in the league recently, suffering six defeats in 15 trips and winning just one of the most recent four – a narrow 1-0 over rock-bottom Sheffield United.
Manchester United vs Manchester City Tips and Predictions
Sure to be highly motivated following the Leipzig fiasco, even money (2.00) actually looks fairly generous on United saving some face by at least avoiding defeat against City on Saturday.
