A Sports Betting Pick by Cruiser
Analysis:With Liverpool back on top in the Premiership, Manchester United will now want to get a win in this match and return to the top of the Premiership when they take on derby rivals Manchester City.
The Red Devils are seeking their 11th league title they enter this match brimming with confidence after entering the Champions League Final where they will meet Barcelona in the Final.
It was no doubt a fantastic performance when they outplayed Arsenal in the semi-finals when they booked their final to Rome, now they aim to complete the double over former Manchester United's Mark Hughes side in this Super Sunday's showdown.
Back in November last year they managed a slim win at City of Manchester Stadium, they just need a maximum of seven from their remaining 12 points at stake to claim the what will be their second hat-trick of Premier League titles.
At the moment United are on a great run of 14 games unbeaten of which they have won 8 of those games. In their last five games they have scored no less than 13 goals and they have won all of those.
But what makes this clash so exciting is that City are no pushover having won their last three Premier League ties as well coming into this match. With wins over West Ham, Everton and Blackburn have seen Manchester City climbed to eight spot and a possible place into Europe.
But their away form is much to be desired as they have managed only their second win which came against Everton in their last match on the road.
As for the team news, Gary Neville returns to the side after missing from a lengthy foot injury. Wes Brown misses out due to a long term foot injury. Brown's season is over after suffering another recurrence of the injury during training. The likes of Carlos Tevez, Dimitar Berbatov and Paul Scholes will start this maatch after they were on the bench in their las match.
As for the visitors, Shaun Wrhight-Phillips will face a late fitness test before he can be fielded but he is rated doubtful after missing the last five games through injury. Pablo Zabaleta could be selected after coming back into the side following a hamstring problem.
Take Manchester United for the win here and give the 1 1/2 ball away.
Cheers and good luck,
