Manchester UTD vs Manchester City betting preview
Man UTD have a strong record at Old Trafford this term, beaten there only once in 15 matches
Manchester United go into the second Manchester derby of the season after another drop in form.

Anyway, Tuesday will mark exactly one month since a surprising 2-1 triumph at the Etihad Stadium against City. Earlier in the League Cup, Man UTD required a penalty shootout to avoid the ignominy of a third-round exit at home to League One Rochdale before overcoming Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.Solskjaer is expected to make several changes from the side that started the Wolves match last time out.
