Looks like Lingaard and Martial will hurt, which means Lukaku and Sanchez start, and they have been dreadful. You just know they are going to turn it on for us !

As bad as they have been they still have Rashford and Mata who do well against us. Having said that they have a cup game v Chelsea to get through on Monday still.

Their fans will be rabid to beat us, I always presumed the choice between us or Man City would be similar for Man Utd fans, but I've heard a few phone in shows where Utd fans would much prefer City to win PL than us, that surprised me. Rashford is their best player, glad Martial is out, he's a good player who has a good record against us.

They don't care for the noisy neighbors, but it would take a long time for them to hate them the way they hate us. Anyone but Liverpool as far as they're concerned. I fancy us though. I was very confident the last time we played them, and I'm confident now, though I'm not usually when we play them. The way they play now, they'll come at us, but they don't have the personnel or tactical organization to do it. I think we'll do them.

Can't remember the last time we won at OT, and they are the most inform club in the EPL in the last 10 games. So can't see us winning there and fear we will no longer be mathematically possible champions after that game. They are defending very well as well with De Gea top of his game again.

If we get 1 point at OT we will be back on top of the league.
Would that be such an impossible outcome?

Math not one of your strengths then?

Agreed. It'll be tough but don't conceede in the first 20 minutes and we'll work our way into the game and hit them on the counter. Very good news if Martial and Lingard are out.
City are like Chelsea were and have bought titles so most don't care if they win the league, they can just say they've bought it.
