Manchester United stars fired up for Man City showdown with players angry at one thing
MANCHESTER UNITED players reportedly expect to beat Manchester City because they are still angry at losing 2-1 to Pep Guardiola’s team back in December.
David Silva and Marcus Rashford had both traded blows until Nicolas Otamendi popped up with the winner.
United were denied a late penalty that day, with Ander Herrera booked for diving.
They were also unable to get a late equaliser with Ederson saving superbly from Romelu Lukaku with his face.
And the MEN say that sense of injustice still burns within the United squad.
City were better that day but Red Devils players reportedly feel as if they deserved at least a point.
Meanwhile, pundit and former United striker Michael Owen expects City to win the title tomorrow afternoon.

“It is well documented that victory for City will see them crowned Premier League champions for a third time,” he told BetVictor.
“And they will be worthy champions, having graced the division with the quality of their football throughout the season.
“Manchester City have won eight of their last 13 PL games against United and are unbeaten in their last 27 home league games.
“Yes, it is possible that Pep Guardiola will make changes with one eye on the second leg of their Champions League tie on Tuesday, but they have a deep squad and United have only won one of their last 10 away games against fellow 'big six' clubs.
“I think City will be crowned champions at the Etihad.”
