Manchester City is heading toward a run at the top four to start 2021, and they’ll pause to try to capture a fourth straight EFL Cup—or, as sponsorship allows, the Carabao Cup.
Here’s everything you need to know to find a Manchester City live stream.
Manchester City vs. Manchester United: Preview
Manchester City got an outstanding 3-1 win over Chelsea to start 2021. They easily could have gotten more than three goals in a fast-moving first half the way they were playing, and only a stoppage-time consolation goal spoiled City’s clean sheet.
Manchester United also got its 2021 off to a good start, beating Villa 2-1 and pulling even on points with Liverpool in the table. United’s still technically in second, but a continued good run of form combined with Liverpool’s bad patch could see United lead the league as soon as next week. (Premier League play pauses this weekend for FA Cup action.)
