I don't think City have been that impressive at the back so far this sea, so there will be opportunities there for our attacking players, hopefully they can taken them.
Both teams have some very good players, so I think it might be a case of who makes the least errors might very well be the team that prevails.”
City are only huge favourites if United allow them to play. But they won't. How successful United are depends on the personnel - I'm sure the manager has a plan. So, no, I don't make City huge favourites. Especially if Aguero gets a ban. I think City are a better side in terms of their fluency but that's probably immaterial once you throw the fact it's a derby, it's at Old Trafford and Jose is in the opposition dugout into the mix.
