City capitalised last season as United's title bid collapsed during the run-in and Mancini is hoping the pressure of their UEFA Champions League campaign will prompt a similar slip-up before the Manchester derby on April 8th. He added: "If United go forward in the Champions League, the last two months will be hard for them. "They could lose five points in two games before the derby."
