Manchester City vs Manchester United Bet Builder Tip
Erling Haaland 2+ Shots On Target
An Erling Haaland goal is one option for the Manchester Derby but there is a bit more value in backing the forward to record at least two attempts on target and that swayed the decision for this bet builder.
Haaland is averaging three shots per-game after the first three rounds of fixtures and tends to be fairly accurate, with 57% of his attempts on target. Last season, Haaland averaged 3.5 shots per-game with an accuracy rate of over 50% and he is in form ahead of the derby. The Norwegian has three goals in the league already this term and hit six in two games for his country over the international break, he can test the keeper at least twice on Sunday.
Bryan Mbeumo 1+ Shots On Target
Manchester United summer signing Bryan Mbeumo has scored in back-to-back games, against Grimsby and Burnley, and should at least be able to record a shot on goal at the Etihad.
Mbuemo has had eight shots across three league games and averaged exactly one shot on target per-game for Brentford last season.
Bernardo Silva To Be Shown A Card
This is the biggest price selection on this bet builder and as an outside candidate Bernardo Silva looks a solid option to be shown a card.
Silva has committed four fouls in total across two Premier League starts for Manchester City this season and had seven yellow cards in 33 league games last season. Silva has a habit of picking up cards in big games, having been booked in the FA Cup final and against top four rivals Aston Villa and Chelsea last term – as well as the last Manchester Derby.
Bruno Fernandes To Commit 2+ Fouls
Manchester United’s Bruno Fernandes has committed four fouls in three league games this season. Last term, the Portuguese midfielder averaged 0.9 fouls per-game in the Premier League and he committed fouls in both Manchester Derbies, he looks a contender for at least two fouls in what is a key fixture for both sides.
