Manchester United will be looking to leapfrog Manchester City in the Premier League when the teams meet at Old Trafford on Sunday (10 a.m. ET, NBCSN).
Louis Van Gaal’s men were held to a 1-1 draw at CSKA Moscow in Wednesday’s Champions League clash but are +155 favorites at the Westgate Las Vegas SuperBook to bounce back with a big win here.
Meanwhile, the guests had a last-minute Kevin De Bruyne winner to thank for their three-point haul at home to Sevilla in midweek, with the SuperBook dealing +178 for them to come out on top once again in this one.
There has not been a single draw in any of the last 12 encounters between the sides, but there are odds of +247 on offer on them cancelling each other out on this occasion.

While the city of Manchester will obviously be tuning in excitedly to see who will claim the local bragging rights come Sunday evening, this fixture is bound to attract a number of neutral viewers simply looking for goals.
With 41 goals scored in the last 10 encounters between the sides, this clash has become one of the most crowd-pleasing events of the Premier League season over recent years.
Although injuries to Sergio Aguero and David Silva may have dampened expectations for Manuel Pellegrini’s men, last weekend’s emphatic 5-1 win over Bournemouth demonstrated their impressive strength in attacking depth – a fact further underlined by De Bruyne’s late winner against Sevilla
Having kept just three clean sheets in their last 10 games in all competitions, the Red Devils are certainly unlikely to neutralize a visiting attack with 13 goals to their name in the last three games.
All things considered, odds of -115 at the Westgate are not to be missed on over 2.5 goals being scored for the 11th game in 12 United matches and ninth in a row for City.
