Reason for Manchester City vs Brighton Predictions
Manchester City outfit that has been cooking with some serious gas recently, as the title-chasers have netted 20 times on the way to securing 18 points from a possible 21. Each of the previous six Manchester City matches in the Premier League has been of the under 3.5 goals variety, with the net bulging a total of just eight times across these contests. It has been quite unusual to see both teams on target in recent Manchester City home matches, with this being the case in just six of their previous 20 games in the league. Having won the last five meetings with Brighton on this ground with an aggregate score of 11-0, the hosts are clear favorites to take maximum points. Phil Foden shows his talent and should be one of the leading players in the future. Jack Grealish is the engine of this team, he goes through the opponent’s defense like a fast train, has excellent ball control, and the English international can be satisfied with his performance. Kalvin Phillips (Shoulder Injury), Kyle Walker (Groin Injury), and John Stones (Hamstring Injury) are unavailable for Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola.
A disappointing run of six defeats in eight trips suggests that Brighton is not the best of travelers, with a total of 16 goals being conceded across these losses. What’s more, eight of the nine top-flight fixtures involving Brighton this season have also served up three goals or fewer, so a repeat performance would appear to be on the agenda here. Brighton is rarely involved in away games in which both teams find the net, with this being the case in just one of their previous seven trips in the Premier League. Leandro Trossard plays well in the middle of the park, and he does not allow the opponent much action. Tariq Lamptey is a great player, he creates a lot of problems for his opponents, and the greatest virtue of this guy is speed. The bench players are expected to show as much as possible and impose themselves on the coach for the starting lineup. From a largely available group of players, there’s just a single fitness problem for the Brighton boss Roberto De Zerbi to contend with. Jakub Moder (Cruciate Ligament Rupture) won’t be in action.
Conclusion
Manchester City is a big favorite in this match, and they are expected to solve the question of the winner at halftime.
The prediction for this match is over 3.5 goals. We hope that football fans will enjoy this match.
