The 23-year-old striker from Norway leads the Premier League in goals, with 17, and has scored 27 goals across all competitions. (For comparison, Manchester United's leading goal scorers have managed just seven in league play.) Haaland is coming off a five-goal performance in Tuesday's 6-2 victory over Luton Town in FA Cup play.
In addition, City will face a United side that will be missing its best goal scorer. Rasmus Hojlund, who is tied for the team lead with seven goals in league play, will be out for Sunday's derby with a muscle injury. His absence will be significant as he has scored eight goals in his last seven matches across all competitions. See which team to pick here.
Why you should back Manchester UnitedGoalkeeper André Onana has played better as of late. In Wednesday's 1-0 victory over Nottingham Forest in the FA Cup, Onana made two key saves and five overall. For the season he is tied for fourth in the EPL in clean sheets, with seven.
In addition, the Red Devils have a quality attacker capable of filling in for the injured Rasmus Hojlund in Marcus Rashford. Though he has scored just five times in league play this season, the 26-year-old Rashford is coming off a 30-goal season across all competitions for United. He will be plenty motivated on Sunday to silence critics who recently have been questioning his dedication to the club. See which team to pick here.
