Man City vs Man United Prediction & Pick

One of the most well-known rivalries in all of soccer, these two EPL rivals are more than familiar with each other. Manchester City has won three of the past four matchups in this rivalry, however, it was Manchester United that picked up the 2-1 victory when they most recently collided back in January.

Having said that, I'm backing Manchester City to take home this year's FA Cup. The Sky Blues likely won't revenge for their most recent loss to Man United and have the talent to pull it off. They're also looking to build as much momentum as possible before next weekend's Champions League Final and the best way to do that is to decisively defeat the Red Devils.

Final Score Prediction: Manchester City: 3 | Manchester United: 1

Man City vs Man United Best Bet

For this match's best bet, I'm taking Manchester City to cover the one-goal spread at +135 odds.

Man City has outscored Man United 13-6 on aggregate over their last four meetings, winning three times by a multi-goal margin over that span. Again, the Sky Blues want to send a message and get their momentum back before next week's UCL Final and the best way of doing so is to up the pressure on their EPL rival early and often.

With one of the most talent-rich lineups in all of soccer, beating Man United by multiple goals won't be a problem for Pep Guardiola's club.

Bet: Manchester City -1 (+135)
