Former Manchester City striker, Sergio Aguero, has anticipated a challenging match when Pep Guardiola’s team faces Manchester United in the upcoming Premier League derby on Sunday.

Aguero believes that Manchester United will pose a strong challenge to Manchester City in this weekend’s match.

In his conversation with Stake, the Argentine emphasized the special nature of derby matches and how top players consistently deliver in them.

The former Barcelona forward also reflected on his personal performances in past derby games.

He stated, “It will be a tough game. Form will certainly play a role, but I expect City to put on a good performance. I don’t believe that United has ever been weak.”

“United has always had excellent players and demonstrated the ability to recover from difficult periods and return to the competition. Derby matches are always special and intense experiences.”

“I’ve been fortunate to have great memories from our matches against United, and we achieved some significant victories. I managed to score, and those victories paved the way for us to win trophies, which is what matters the most.”

Currently, Manchester City holds the second position in the Premier League table with 21 points from nine matches, while Manchester United is in the ninth position with 15 points from an equal number of games.
