The majestic Manchester derby on Monday, which is likely to decide the outcome of the title race, looms large over the Premier League this weekend.

There are three points separating the two sides at the top of the table, with three games remaining of the campaign – so, as Sir Alex Ferguson has implied, it really doesn’t get any bigger than this.

We feel that United’s experience of winning titles and keeping their cool at this stage of the season will allow them to earn a draw, which may be easier to achieve if City boss Roberto Mancini falls back on his cautious tendencies. Back the draw at 5/2 with bet365.

If it’s an accumulator you’re after, then take a look at a Sunderland, Liverpool and Swansea treble, which comes in at just over 6/1 with bet365.
