A massive night in the Premier League coming up on Wednesday as it’s the Manchester Derby at Old Trafford. Manchester United are as big as 13/2 to win a home game at ‘The Theatre of Dreams’ and it is City who are taken to strengthen their bid for the title with yet another win…
United have lost six of their past eight games in all competitions following their pathetic 4-0 defeat at the hands of Everton on Sunday. The performance was an utter shambles and it is difficult to see how the likes of Ashley Young, Phil Jones and Chris Smalling can keeping Sergio Aguero and co. at bay.
Liverpool fans will be hoping United can do them a favour by beating City and giving Jurgen Klopp’s men a foothold in the race for the Premier League title, but that is surely expecting too much.
City cruised to a 3-1 win when they hosted United at The Etihad earlier this season and we can see an identical outcome, with the 3-1 City win currently available at 10/1 with Betfred.
There is certainly the promise of goals as the free-flowing football of Pep Guardiola takes on a defence that was arguably in its pomp (if it was ever in its ‘pomp’) nearly ten years ago. The fresh, swift legs of Raheem Sterling will be too much for United and he is our bet to score first.

Wednesday’s Football Treble
Manchester City headline Wednesday’s treble because, quite simply, they are far superior to their hosts in every imaginable way.
We then dip into the Dutch Eredivisie as Utrecht are tipped to beat a Fortuna Sittard side that has lost their last seven away games in a row, conceding an eye-watering 32 goals in the process.
Sticking with the Dutch theme, we’re ticking ‘no’ in the ‘both teams to score’ bracket for Zwolle v Groningen. The 11/8 looks absurdly good value as this is a bet that has landed in eight of Zwolle’s past ten league outings and in eight of Groningen’s past ten too. In fact, the visitors’ last seven matches have witnessed a paltry seven goals and we expect them to play things tight yet again.
