With just a point separating the two teams in third and fourth, the stage is set for a battle of high intensity.
Pellegrini said: "It is difficult to have a more intense match than you have in the Premier League every week but of course you add a little bit more for a derby of the city. Both teams want to win.
"It is important to be the winning team in the city - that gives an extra plus for the game, not only intensity is better but quality.
"Both teams have very good players and both managers like to play an attacking system so I hope for a good game for the fans, for whom you play, and after that I hope we can win."
City have held the edge over United in recent contests and could register a fifth successive derby win for the first time in their history with a victory this weekend. A win would also see them become the first club to beat United five times in a row in the Premier League.
Pellegrini said: "I think that they have a lot of respect for our team because last year it was the team that dominated not only the derby, but I think we dominated also the Premier League. It is not easy for a team.
"In the last three years we won two and in the other we were runner-up. This year we have been runner-up the whole year.
"We have a different problem, we have to make sure we don't make mistakes because they have important and technically very good players.
"When you have mathematical options in football you must never give up and always believe you can do it."
Watch the Manchester derby live on Sky Sports 1 from 3.30pm this Sunday.
