Man City v Man Utd prediction
There has been just one draw in 15 matches between the two teams since the start of the 2017/18 campaign so there is a good chance that this is done and dusted within 90 minutes. In that period, City have won eight and United have won six.
The case is further supported by the fact that last year's FA Cup final was the first since 2016 to need more time for a winner to emerge.
While Manchester United have come on leaps and bounds under Erik ten Hag, it is difficult to look beyond Manchester City amid their treble bid. Pep Guardiola's side were in a rich vein of form before the Premier League title was secured, and you can put a line through their defeat at Brentford on the final day of the season as squad players were given a chance to start.
Crucially, the likes of Erling Haaland, Kevin De Bruyne, Rodri and Ilkay Gundogan will be fresh for this, and they should provide City with enough firepower to get the job done.
Our prediction: Man City 2-1 Man Utd (15/2 at bet365)
