Manchester City will face Manchester United on October 2. The match will take place at Etihad Stadium. In the last season and to the delight of UK bookmakers and bettors alike, Manchester City became the league’s champion while Manchester United finished at six.

Previously, Manchester City entered the UEFA Champions League final and lost to Real Madrid. The team got two-month rest before entering the preseason. During the preseason, Manchester City participated in two matches.

The first one was against Club America in Houston in which they won 2-1. Kevin de Bruyne made both goals in Houston. After that, they headed to Lambeau Field to have a match against Bayern Munich and won 1-0. In this game, Erling Haaland awarded Manchester City the goal.

Manchester United had varying results during the preseason. They won against Crystal Palace (3-1) and Liverpool (4-0). Then, they lost to Melbourne Victory (1-4). The match against Aston Villa ended with a 2-2 draw. They are scheduled for two more preseason games against Atletico Madrid and Rayo Vallecano.

The latest footie odds as well as the prediction for this gamegoes to Manchester City which has shown a more solid roster than Manchester United in the past years. Currently, Cristiano Ronaldo’s position in the team is unclear because he has requested a transfer. Ronaldo does not participate in the team’s preseason tour.

Two weeks later, Liverpool will be facing Manchester City on Sunday, October 16 at Leicester City’s King Power Stadium. These teams will fight for the Premier League title again.

Compared to Manchester City's short stunt in the preseason, Liverpool had participated in more matches. However, their results were mixed. They lost to Manchester United in Bangkok but then achieved wins against Crystal Palace and RB Leipzig. After that, they were defeated by RB Salzburg.
