Man United vs Man City: Psychic cat predicts winner

Nimbus Pronos, the feline oracle whose forecasts have attracted a significant following online, was filmed appearing to choose City as the winner of the opening Manchester derby of the 2026/27 Premier League season.

A video circulating on Instagram captured the cat's prediction, with the clip quickly drawing attention from football fans.

Watch Nimbus' prediction, as shared on Instagram:

City enter the fixture in commanding form. New head coach Enzo Maresca, who took over following Pep Guardiola's exit, has guided the club to maximum points from their first three league games.

The winning start has given City considerable momentum ahead of what is traditionally one of the season's marquee fixtures.

United, meanwhile, have collected four points from the opening nine available under manager Michael Carrick, who was handed the role permanently after impressing as interim boss towards the end of last season.

The mixed start to the campaign means pressure is already building on the Red Devils ahead of a home fixture they will be desperate to win.

According to Sofascore, the last ten meetings between the two clubs have been remarkably balanced: City won five, United won four, and one ended in a draw.

That statistical closeness makes Nimbus Pronos' bold call all the more intriguing.

From a Ghanaian perspective, winger Antoine Semenyo will be hoping to make his mark on the occasion, with the forward yet to open his account for the campaign and eyeing a first goal against United.
