It’s red versus blue on Sunday as the Etihad plays host to the second Manchester derby of the season in the headline act of this weekend’s Premier League TV schedule.

Manchester United barely laid a glove on Manchester City in the reverse fixture back in November, which was the beginning of the end of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s reign.

There will be fresh pressure on the hosts this weekend, however, as Liverpool have fought their way back into the title race and closed the gap on the league leaders recently.

Ralf Rangnick’s side couldn’t find a way through Watford last Saturday but remain fourth as things stand – though with West Ham and Arsenal playing earlier in the weekend before them that may have changed by the time the game kicks off.

Three points would be massive for either team but the bragging rights will be just as important for supporters of both Manchester clubs on Sunday afternoon.

Our prediction: Man City v Man Utd

Man Utd were completely outclassed back in November and there’s no doubt that Pep Guardiola’s side are favourites once again.

The Red Devils came away from their last visit to the Etihad with all three points to end their rivals’ lengthy unbeaten run and with Liverpool creeping ever closer, a repeat of that result could be a massive moment in the title race.

The return of Scott McTominay is going to be massive for Rangnick’s side but even so, it’s hard to see anything but a home win.

Our prediction: Man City 3-1 Man Utd (11/1 at Bet365)
