Manchester City defender, Manuel Akanji has warned Manchester United that his team would take all three points at Old Trafford when both teams clash in Sunday’s Premier League derby.
The Switzerland international, who scored as Man City beat Young Boys 3-1 in the Champions League on Wednesday, will miss the clash with Manchester United through suspension. Akanji had picked up a one-match domestic ban after being sent off in the closing stages of last weekend’s win over Brighton.
However, the 28-year-old is now backing Pep Guardiola’s men to beat Man United in front of their home fans. “It is going to be a big game, it is going to be tough, but I trust in our guys,” Akanji said as quoted by Independent UK ahead of the clash. “I think we are ready for this game and we are going to get the three points in an away game again.”
