Manchester City vs. Manchester United Preview
Wembley plays host to another Manchester Derby, making it the third Wembley meeting between the two sides in a year. The first meeting fell the way of the Premier League Champions on their way to an unprecedented treble. Ilkay Gundogan opened the scoring within the first 15 seconds before Bruno Fernandes equalized through a penalty. However, Gundogan secured the club’s historic treble with a volley from the edge of the area in the second half.
The two sides then met in the FA Cup final last season, with Manchester United being the perceived underdogs for the cup final against a four-in-a-row-collecting Manchester City side. Erik Ten Hag’s side produced one of their finest performances all season by pressing Manchester City from the first whistle. The Red Devils scored two first-half goals through Carrington graduates Alejandro Garnacho and Kobbie Mainoo, with a late goal from Jeremy Doku unable to surmount a comeback. The win for Manchester United secured Europa League qualification and thwarted a Premier League and FA Cup double for Manchester City.
