    Don't hold out much hope for the game tonight but it would sure be nice to complete the league double over them when they come back to OT before end of season. We might have quite a few players back by then too as well as Bruno.

    Hopefully Pep underestimate us and starts with Bravo, Stones, Sterling and David Silva. That gives us hope if Aguero and Laporte is not playing too.
    He will start De Bryune sadly, but as long as we can stop him then we might be able to get a 2-0 win and then win on penalties.

    Sterling? One of their best players?
     
    Just hope we come through this game without any further injuries.

    Starting XI:

    Romero

    Wan-Bissaka
    Lindelof
    Maguire
    Williams

    Fred
    Matic

    Dalot
    Mata
    Greenwood

    Martial

    subs:
    De Gea
    Bailly
    Shaw
    Pereira
    Gomes
    Lingard
    James

    Score Prediction:
    Manchester City 1-1 Manchester United
     
    Would love to see us get two early goals, sit back for the next 75 minutes, soak up pressure and then prang in a 94th minute winner.

    However, with most of our important players out injured it hard to see where the win will come from. One can dream. City have lost to lesser teams this season so we can hope.
     
    I don't think we'll get pumped like the first leg but I don't think at any point we will look like we might go through.
     
    We'll miss Rashford so much throughout this season. I just don't know where our goals are coming from today? We have no creators.
     
    He's gonna go 5 at the back isn't he? Bailly, Maguire and Lindelof with Williams and AWB on the flanks.
    Set up for counter at pace with James, Martial and Greenwood.
     
    The first goal will be massive tonight, I'm not expecting us to win but as long as we don't get embarrassed ill be happy
     
    I want to see Martial James and Greenwood start. Go all in for the comeback. If by half time we're being flogged then just sub the key players off to rest them for Wolves

    Exactly. And if he playes Lingard instead of Bruno, I will scream.
    On the other hand, Jesse might turn into Messi after news broke (I can play boss, look, I can play, please dont't sell me to Tranmere)

    He can miss 10 open goals on his day. He is normally poor against us too.
    Unlike Aguero so if they play Sterling over Aguero then I am happy.

    Agree with this sentiment. If i had the choice of facing just one of them, would easily choose Sterling everytime. Aguero always seems to go up a level against United, Similiar to how Rooney was against City.
     
    This tie is dead I'm afraid. Barring a lucky early red card and penalty incident.

    Already looking to weekend, 4th and europa are priorities for me
     
    Watching this with my mate who is a City fan. Considering the score and our injuries, I'm not very optimistic.
     
    The radio said we had to score 2. Don't we have to score 3?
     
    Don't hold out too much hope for tie overall but I hope we can give a good showing tonight.
    A win by any amount would be great but I'm really just hoping we don't get turned over big time.
     
    Almost forgot about this.

    We have to score the first goal. Please don't let them score in the first 30mins.
