Mornar vs Bokelj - First League

There is a notable edge to this First League fixture. When Mornar meet Bokelj at the home ground on May 10, 2026, both will sense an opportunity to land a telling blow. That coronation came from City's £116m summer signing Elliot Anderson - and has been hotly debated in the build-up to the Manchester derby Super Sunday showdown at Old Trafford, which you can watch live on Sky Sports.

The two sides arrive with plenty to prove, and the First League contest at the home ground offers a chance to lay down a marker. Mornar have blown hot and cold, D across their last five and a win rate of 33.33% that leaves room for improvement. The visitors have been a steady presence on the road, WDLD in their last five and a campaign win rate of 44.44%. Where Mornar have leaned on defensive discipline, Bokelj have often taken the initiative going forward, and that stylistic difference should shape the contest. The Nottingham Forest playmaker is not anticipated to leave the City Ground this summer, unless a substantial transfer fee is put on the table.

Tactically, the contest promises a fascinating contrast. Mornar will look to impose their style on home soil, while Bokelj are likely to have ideas of their own about how to gain the upper hand.

Neither side is short on individuals capable of tilting the balance, and the duel between the two squads' chief creators could prove particularly pivotal. Discipline at the back and sharpness in front of goal will likely tilt the balance one way or the other. However, the Scotland striker has not hit the ground running in Govan and was on the bench for the 5-1 home League Cup win over St Mirren on Sunday, with midfielder Nico Raskin taking the armband.

The market has yet to form a strong view, and the contest looks genuinely difficult to call. A share of the spoils looks the most probable outcome, with neither side holding a decisive edge — a 1-1 draw feels like a fitting result. The ramifications of this result could ripple through the First League standings for weeks to come, regardless of who comes out on top. The Spaniard heading to Barca all but rules out a midfield departure from the Bernabeu and thus United will likely have to look elsewhere.
