This Wednesday we get to see the biggest game of the season so far, not just because it will determine who takes on Aston Villa at Wembley at the end of February but also we will get to see if City are ready to become the number one team in Manchester. In football money talks and City have it and United don't, it's that simple and it probably is only a matter of time before the Eastlands side makes it to the very top.
City take a one goal advantage to Old Trafford thanks to a former Man Utd star in Carlos Tevez who was once again at his brilliant best in the first leg and was the difference between the two teams, the difference that money was responsible for taking him away form Sir Alex to his new home across the city.
The bookmakers marking up this match are putting reputation first as they have put in Man Utd as the 4/6 favourites with most online sportsbook operators including Paddy Power with City as big as 9/2. The justification for this is that City only need a draw on the night and that's what makes taking this price difficult to do. For punters seeking guidance maybe backing Man City at 8/11 to win the tie, might be the better bet than backing United to win the match at the price already outlined.

This is an intriguing contest and tactics will be all important, will Mancini have what it takes to make his first leg advantage count? only time will tell. This is a vital game for Sir Alex as going out here could leave the Old Trafford trophy cabinet bare for the season. United look a team that does not have the depth of squad anymore to be consistent enough as the first half of the season demonstrated to win the Premier League title. Nor, do they have the quality to win the Champions League. For those Man Utd fans reading this piece, can we suggest you taking the odds for a champions league victory with Paddy Power which currently stand at 8/1.
