Manchester City vs Brighton 22.10.2022

Having lost 1-0 to rivals Liverpool last time out, Manchester City will look to bounce back to winning ways when they host Brighton on Saturday. Due to the rescheduling of their mid-week fixture against Arsenal, City have had time to reinvigorate themselves ahead of this tie. With City 4 points behind Arsenal, we expect Pep’s men to be highly driven by the need to reduce the point difference and heap pressure on the Gunners at the summit.

Meanwhile, Brighton are winless under new man De Zerbi. In fact, since the former Sassuolo man took over, the Seagulls have lost 2 and drawn 2 including the 6-goal thriller at Anfield. As they hunt for their first win in 5, Brighton face a City side that has dominated past meetings and is spurred by the need to chase down Arsenal at the top of the log.

Looking at City’s all-round prowess and Brighton’s hunger for a turnaround in their form, we expect a thrilling tie with the first half producing at least 2 goals
