DBasia.news – Manchester City will meet Manchester United in the 2022-2023 English Premier League at the Etihad Stadium. Bacary Sagna predicts The Citizens will win a landslide victory.
Sagna assesses that Manchester City has better strength than Manchester United. In fact, he said the Red Devils would not give Pep Guardiola’s team trouble.
Throughout this season, Manchester City have never lost in seven games played. Meanwhile, Manchester United have failed to win twice in six matches.
In the standings, Manchester City occupies a better position. The defending champions are in second place with 17 points, while Erik ten Hag’s team are in fifth, five points behind.
“I can’t see anyone but City win this game. I think City will win 3-0. I can’t see United causing too much trouble for City,” Sagna told Lord Ping.
In addition, another factor that makes Sagna believe Manchester City can silence Manchester United is the arrival of Erling Haaland. According to him, the Norwegian striker perfected the strength of the former club.
Haaland’s performance with Manchester City has been impressive. He has contributed 14 goals in 9 games played in all competitions this season.
“After the start he [Haaland] had, even that there were stories about the possibility of him joining United before going to Dortmund, but they didn’t, I think he’s going to want to show them what they’re missing.
“If I had to choose another I would say Kevin [De Bruyne] because we all know what he can do.”
