Man United vs Man City: Sergio Aguero Makes His Prediction Ahead of Manchester Derby

• Manchester United are set to host rivals City at Old Trafford on Sunday
• This will be the first Manchester derby of the 2023/24 campaign
• City will head into the tie off an impressive run in the Premier League

Sergio Aguero has made his prediction for the Manchester United vs Man City Premier League clash set for Sunday, October 29.

The two English giants are scheduled to face off at Old Trafford in what will be the first Manchester derby of the 2023/24 season.

The tie comes at a time United are looking to get their campaign back on track after a disappointing start to the season.

Erik ten Hag's men have recorded four defeats in nine of their opening matches of the campaign, losing to the likes of Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur.

However, the Red Devils have appeared to pick up some momentum in recent days, having won back-to-back EPL games against Burnley and Sheffield United.

While City are the odds favourites to win the Manchester derby this Sunday, per Manchester Evening News, Aguero is predicting a tough encounter at the Theatre of Dreams.

According to the legendary striker, form will play a central role in deciding the winner of the fixture.

"It'll be a difficult game. Form will matter for sure, but City will have a good performance. I don't think United have ever been weak. They've always had great players and they've always shown that ability to recover from bad periods and get back into the fray," he told Stake.

"Derbies are special matches, always. They are quite intense as an experience," he added.
