One DERBY to watch!

For many years, Manchester City were overshadowed by their much illustrated rivals, Manchester United. United, being dominant in the European and English scene for many years should thank Sir Alex Ferguson for their dominance.

However, since Sheikh Mansour bin Zayed Al Nahyan took over the other side on Manchester, things have certainly changed. Pumping in billions of pounds into the side, Manchester City are one of the most exciting sides in Premier League.

Currently placed first in the Premier League, Roberto Mancini's side has been a force to be reckoned with and this season, they are on par with the top sides.

Those days, the Manchester Derby was a meager affair but now, both teams have renewed their hostilities and today's derby will be highly anticipated by Premier League around the world.

Both sides, who are unbeaten will surely want to win this game. Manchester City would want to regain their pride after losing the Community Shield whereas, Manchester United will want to maintain their supremacy against their improving neighbours.

Manchester United will surely on Wayne Rooney for this game as he is one lad that can change an outset of a game. Wayne Rooney who scored a brilliant bicycle kick against City last season will be the toast as Lexcott and Kompany will need to be on their toes when facing him.

David Silva will be the man for City as he has been a livewire and inspiration for the richly assembled side. The Spaniard, who is the creative fulcrum for the side, provides ammunition for Edin Dzeko, Mario Balotelli and Sergio Aguero. It will be an interesting tie for the lad as Mancini will surely rely on the lightweight Spaniard to break open the sturgid defense led by Vidic and new signing, Phil Jones.

Roberto Mancini, who has praised Sir Alex for his consistency will surely want a win to remain on top of the league while Manchester United will want to regain the lead in the Premier League.

To all the fans out there, feast yourself with a game that will surely keep you on your toes. I maybe an Arsenal fan but I'm eagerly for the highlights of the game.
