Schmeichel: Man Utd are underdogs tonight

Manchester United legend Peter Schmeichel feels they'll be underdogs tonight at Manchester City.

Schmeichel played for both clubs, spending a season at City after eight years at United, culminating in the 1999 Treble win.

"You have to remember this team weren't expected to win the title," he said. "It's a young team. A lot of young players, a team for the future.

"Man City have 40 world-class players and to compete with them is really good."
