Manchester United Preview 

The Red Devils 2024-25 season has been far from anything spectacular. After getting knocked out of the FA Cup against Fulham, Manchester United came back with a string of good performances against Leicester City and Arsenal but couldn't maintain their streak as they lost their last match to Nottingham Forest. After matchday 30, Manchester United sat 13th in the Premier League standings with 37 points. Any slip-up in this penultimate phase of the season can see the Red Devils fall into the relegation zone.

Manchester City Preview 

The defending champions of the Premier League are in the midst of their worst season. With many of their key players injured, the giants from Etihad may find it difficult to get past their arch-rivals in their backyard. With 2 wins, a draw and a loss in their last 4 games, City is going to go for all three points. Manchester City will be missing the services of their star striker, Erling Haaland, who is set to miss the rest of the season with a serious injury. The absence of Haaland also provides an opportunity for other youngsters in the team to make a name for themselves. Manchester currently sits at the 5th spot in the Premier League standings, just one shy of Chelsea at the fourth position.
