Pablo Zabaleta looks nailed on to pick up a card, and even at 6/4 he will receive plenty of support. Wayne Rooney could also be worth backing at 3/1 after being booked in both fixtures last season.
Patrice Evra at 4/1 will interest many as the United captain is a fiery character and often picks up cards in big matches. Also Michael Carrick is a fairly big 7/2, with the midfielder often picking up clever yellow cards to stop dangerous attacks.
However my favourite bet is Chris Smalling at a huge 5/1. The clumsy defender should continue at right back in Rafael’s absence and will come up against a pacy Manchester City attack that will look to get in behind a slow United defence.
Elsewhere I like the look of Michael Carrick to have the most tackles at 10/1. The pass master was the winner in last season’s fixture and also at the Etihad Stadium in 2012 so looks massively overpriced here.
In the most shots department Robin Van Persie looks a good bet at 3/1 after winning comfortably last year. With the game often littered with free kicks he will have plenty of opportunities to sneak a few easy shots, in comparison to the Blues strikers who shirk free kick responsibilities.
