We simulated Manchester United vs Man City to get a score prediction for the Manchester derby

Manchester United and Man City meet for the second time this season on Saturday afternoon, and both sides will be desperate for three points.

Man City still sit five points off Arsenal in first place in the Premier League, and with the Gunners taking on Tottenham on Sunday, three points for Pep Guardiola's side could be huge in their title race. On the other hand, a win for United would put them just one point behind City, potentially kickstarting a title charge for Erik ten Hag's men.

Both sides played in the Carabao Cup quarter-finals prior to Saturday's clash, with United advancing to the semis after a 3-0 win over Charlton, but City were eliminated after losing 2-0 to Southampton. The first meeting between the two rivals earlier this season produced a classic, with Erling Haaland and Phil Foden both scoring hat-tricks in a 6-3 win.
