    I'm early and large on Man City. Looking at their recent form at home, I think they are more secure at the back and depending on who runs up front, probably stronger on that end too. I am hopeful that any dives from United go uncalled, because I would hate for the game to be ruined by errant penalty calls.

    Yeah, couldn't agree more, maybe over 2,75 instead of 2,5 for better odds.

    Didn't quote BigTimeWinner for some reason

    a lot will depend on line ups.

    Manchester United

    David De Gea
    Patrice Evra
    Jonny Evans
    Rio Ferdinand
    Phil Jones (Rafael?)
    Nani
    Michael Carrick
    Paul Scholes
    Antonio Valencia
    Wayne Rooney
    Danny Welbeck

    Manchester City
    Joe Hart
    Gael Clichy
    Joleon Lescott
    Vincent Kompany
    Micah Richards
    Samir Nasri
    Nigel De Jong
    Yaya Toure
    David Silva
    Sergio Aguero
    Carlos Tevez

    I'd play the UNDER here.

    If you can get the 3,0 or 2,75 at a reasonable price, take it. Don't think there will be more than 3 goals.

    I would say Man City is slightly stronger in terms of players quality but Man Utd players have more experience in this type of matches. Going for City win.

    I think I'm gonna go BIG on the over 2.5 at 1.75 @5dimes. Can't see how these two teams can't score at least three goals here. Both teams have amazing attacking power, one goal for man city and man utd will HAVE to attack, one goal for united, man city will then have to over turn the result. Should be a good match, hopefully with a lot of goals

    Man U - 33 of 35 games they've scored. Man City have scored in every home game. Probably safe to think they're both scoring and going over since City has to go for the win and attack. I'm going with the draw (possibly at 2-2)

    Good info this is another match-up like Barca-Real where I'm looking at the both to score prop despite the heavy juice.

    Feel this will be a cagey game as Man Utd got more to lose than gain. And they conceded 4 goals last time, they will try to tighten their defence more. A low scoring(1-2 goals) affair with City winning it.

    United have to adjust their D# from the last match up, lean to the UNDER and CITY to WIN game.

    Good point, I hope Balotelli doesn't play, though with Tevez and Aguero up front you'd think there's no room...

    And that's going to be key IMO, how Man u deal with Man C's revamped attack.

    I think we MIGHT see Balotelli in minutes 80-90+ if the score is tied.

    City needs a win, and I believe Balotelli is still the current top player in Premier League in goals per minutes played ratio.

    Totally agree with the above post, I hope it doesn't come down to that, hope he doesn't have to come on.

    I'm biased on this one, city to win and over. 3 or more goals. Main reason is Tevez back in form, using the ball very well.

    Balotelli factor will be huge. He can be a match winner but a big liability in defence as he doesn't work hard to close down the players and always a red card trying to happen. If Mancini is clever enough, he won't start him.

    Call me a mad man but I really like Tevez to score as well alot! I don't like Lescott in defense but with Kompany, Clichy and Richards that's a solid D with Richards been the only liability on his run's forward. Ferguson know's he can't afford to lose this match so unless their midfield play's deeper Man city will undoubtably score on that Man U defense. Leaning over, just going to see how Man U lines up

    Yea, I think those odds are hovering around -170, and who knows if the match ends up being a 1-0 or 2-0 game.

    Fergie going conservative....Rooney playing as lone striker up top!

    City will hold nothing back, we should see some goals for the light blue side I expect.
