Man United and Man City collide in what is perhaps the most anticipated Manchester Derby in years this weekend and it's Mourinho's men that look the best value to walk away with those all important bragging rights.
Both Manchester clubs have made phenomenal starts to their respective Premier League campaigns with both carrying 100% records over their opening three games going in to this one. Something's got to give.
Hosts United go in to this one as the favourites at 11/8 and it's not hard to see why. Firstly, Jose Mourinho's brings with him an exceptional home record, the Portuguese coach has lost just NINE times in his entire managerial career and he won't be looking to add to that number against his new side's local rivals.

Secondly, is the small matter of City missing talismanic forward Sergio Aguero who is serving a ban for a cheeky elbow to the cranium of West Ham defender Winston Reid.
The Argentine has been as impressive ever so far this season and has already bagged three goals in as many games and is currently tied at the top of the goal scorer charts along side United's Zlatan Ibrahimovic and will be sorely missed on Saturday afternoon.
Ladbrokes are running a fantastic offer for new customers and are offering a huge 8/1 on the United win which can't be missed out on. If you fancy City to topple their noisy neighbours then you can also get them enhanced to 10/1 from 9/4 when you sign up. Best of all you'll get your money back as a free bet if you lose.

In the goalscorer markets, Zlatan Ibrahimovic to score anytime looks like a real peach of a bet at 5/4. The on-form Swede could give an unsettled City back four real problems especially when defenders Stones and Otamendi have looked prone to lapses in concentration at points this season.
Thirteen of the last seventeen Manchester Derby games at Old Trafford have finished with both teams scoring, whilst all three of City's matches this season have involved goals at both ends. Both teams to score in this one is 5/6.
What good is a derby without a red card? Mark Clattenburg to send a player off is a very tempting 12/5.
