Manchester United v Manchester City: Who will win?

Perhaps, the most anticipate match of English Premier League 2009-2010 will be held tomorrow between Manchester United and Manchester City. There are many reasons behind it. The readers who use to read news everyday there is nothing to describe anything. But I just want to remind some important points once more and lack and strong movement of both teams.

In the season 08-09 United got a narrow wins over city in the home and away matches. When united were dominated in whole season with a lot of star players like Ronaldo and Tevz and more. At the same time they could become the title holder and number one football in English premier league. At this moment they have lost two stars and some of the present players suppose to keep out due to injury from Sir Alex Ferguson’s side. Among them Rio Ferdinand, goalkeeper Edwin Van der Sar and midfielder Owen Hargreaves. Especially, Ronaldo and Tevez scored wining goal on the opposition net.

Manchester City is going to showdown with the complete team without Brazilian trikers Robinho and Zimbabwean striker Benjani. Vincent Kompany, Carlos Tevez and Roque Santa Cruz and Emmanuel Adebayor is considered the best players on the side of Manchester City.

Manchester united and City both has lost one match each and holding the second and third position by earning same points. United meet with one of the strong opposition Arsenal this season and secured wins as well as this is City’s first match one of the best team of Premier league.

It is sure that the point of interest of the encounter between City and United will be Carlos Tavez as Sir Alex Ferguson ignored him.
