Brighton vs Man City

Brighton (predicted lineup): Bart Verbruggen, Joel Veltman, Jan Paul van Hecke, Igor, Pervis Estupinan, Ferdi Kadioglu, Jack Hinshelwood, Carlos Baleba, Kaoru Mitoma, Georginio Rutter, Danny Welbeck.

Manchester City (predicted lineup): Ederson Moraes, Kyle Walker, Manuel Akanji, Nathan Ake, Josko Gvardiol, Mateo Kovacic, Savinho, Phil Foden, Bernardo Silva, Jeremy Doku, Erling Haaland.

Manchester City have suffered in their last three game by facing defeat against teams we thought they will win, today they will go against Brighton who have also faced double defeat, the match will be a little bit tough let see how the game will end.
Haaland was able to break the deadlock on the 23rd minutes of the game with a very fast reaction after the Brighton goalkeeper, Bart Verbruggen tried preventing the ball from entering into the goal post. Haaland rush fast to the ball and played it the second time inside the back of the net before Brighton defender put his right foot to stop the ball.

Manchester city missed quite some good chance but they dominated the game away from home and they are also on the lead. Brighton couldn't create much opportunities because City defense is stronger than their attackers, but Danny Welbeck almost find the back of the net.

Brighton 0-1 M. City
Haaland long legs is really beneficial to him, else the defender would've gotten to it first and cleared it, but his reflexes are classical and he got to the ball first and swiped it in. He could've made it two safe from the bar and slight deflection from the keeper. Welbeck's penalty was denied by Var and I think it's home advantage that got played out. The game is interesting and the pressure is real. I'm really enjoying the power tussle between the two teams.

This will be an exciting and difficult match for both teams. Both for Arsenal and Chelsea because Arteta and Enzo both have an aggressive game structure. In terms of weaknesses, I am more inclined to Arsenal who are in decline if they make the slightest mistake in the match against Chelsea, it could be a nightmare.
The Arsenal vs. Chelsea match is going to be an interesting match, and they both will want to do everything possible to win the match. I really love the pattern that Enzo Maresca is currently playing, the only problem that I have with him is that the Chelsea defense is still kind of weak, and they lack experienced strikers who will always score for them. Arsenal has a strong defense, but Arsenal's performance has dropped this season probably due to the injury problem that they are facing. The match will be an interesting and tough one, Arsenal should be able to win the match with a slight goal difference, but I am expecting Chelsea to score also in the match.

Crystal Palace wasted a good opportunity to claim their first away win for this season when they messed up their defense against Wolverhampton Wanderers last week and the game ended up in a draw even when they played much better than Wolverhampton Wanderers. Playing against Fulham will not be an easy task for Crystal Palace today as the number of players in their injuries list are huge and I think Fulham will be able to take advantage of it and claim a vital away victory at the final whistle.



Palace is losing against Fulham. They lost 2-0. As far as i can see, nothing improved so far from them. As usual, their attack was abysmal, though, they created a lot of goal attempts. A couple of mistakes from their defenders cost them three points. They're shite now after they sold their key players like Olise.

They shall accept the reality if they're now a relegation team. If they keep playing with the same pattern, they seem to be relegated to the Championship next season.

Fulham has a great performance against crystal palace...
I am very happy for ESR because his move away from Arsenal has really been career boosting. The trust that the fulham coach has put on him and the number of minutes he has had all through this season has really influenced his performance making him one of the most likely candidates to score in almost every fulham game. Nketiah and Nelson have not yet started experiencing such success. Crystal Palace are in a very bad shape. We are looking now to how Brighton will handle and deal with the pressure that Manchester City will bring because this is a game that they will not like to lose. Haaland has not been scoring, maybe the return of KDB will help solve that.

Manchester City heads into the match against Brighton on the back of three consecutive losses—a rare streak for Guardiola's team. However, these losses were in the League Cup and Champions League, with only one recent defeat in the Premier League, against Bournemouth. All of these setbacks happened in away games, where City has struggled to find consistent form in attack, partly due to the absence of key players like Rodri and De Bruyne.

I expect City to show resilience against Brighton, as they cannot afford to drop more points. I believe Guardiola will find a way to sharpen their attacking play, and City should secure a win despite the challenges with their lineup.
Brighton is strong too even they traditionally are not kind of big club in Premier League but in latest seasons, Brighton have been improving and can be considered as one of best giant killers in Premier League.

It's very hard to see Manchester City losing 3 matches consecutively like this and meeting Brighton is a danger to Manchester City at this moment. If they lose it, it will be a first time they lose 4 matches in a row with Pep Guardiola as their head coach since the last 7 seasons.

With many injured players from defensive to midfield areas, and the bad transfer decision to let Julian Alvarez moved to Atletico Madrid in the summer, Manchester City now have big problems in both defense, midfield and attacking areas. In this season, they let their opponents doing many dangerous counter attacks and it appeared even with Rodri, not only after this player injured and missed rest of this season.

Brighton vs Manchester City

I think this is match that Manchester City should have won after the 3 defeats they got, I hope Pep can give confidence and also the right direction for his players to be able to provide quality game competitively.
Indeed Manchester City is playing away but this is match that is quite important to be able to keep up with the points gap from Liverpool, I really hope Manchester City can win in today match.

I think it will be similar to today's Real game where Real won big after 2 defeats in a row. City have 3 defeats in a row and despite the suboptimal composition and other circumstances they are obliged to win. By the way, the bookmakers' odds for this game are very generous - 1.76 for City to win, if you take City's victory with a handicap, the odds will be even more favorable.

It's a tough task for Crystal Palace this week, Fulham are not an easy team to beat since the last few seasons, while Crystal Palace are just a team that is in the bottom position. Playing at home is a consideration for bettors who bet on them, honestly, i'm confused if i have to choose between these two teams.
Fulham has a great performance against crystal palace, to honest this week is not easy week for the  crystal palace, even when a lot of people’s was predicted that Fulham will going to find their match so difficult to win I definitely opposed the motion, because for a severals season now Fulham performance has really improved, a lot of teams always find it difficult to win them when ever they meet with Fulham. Now their leading crystal palace by 1-0 and I hope for them that they can secure this goal and dominate the match without any much pressure.

BTC, a coin of today and tomorrow.
On the table, Brentford 10th while Bournemouth 11th

They are obviously of the same capacity. They are fighting it out against each other. First half ended 2:2 and in the second half,  Brentford is ahead 3:2. If the match eventually ends in draw, Bournemouth will go ahead.
I don't know what to predict in the match, but I think there'll be more goals in the match. This is a typical example of an English Premier league match. No dull moment at all.

Brighton has also lost the last two games they have played against Liverpool,  both during the cup game and during the premier league competition.  This would be a good game for them to take points or share points with the cityzens but 90 minutes will definitely decide.
They still have that killer confidence as a squad and team but what's lacking has been Rodri.

 Getting a replacement just like hin will restore by cityzens performance but who can fill up his role immediately? Tough game, Brighton are also a great side tactically.
For Pep Guardiola and his players, the away match against Brighton is a rather nerve wracking affair. They are under pressure to end their three-match losing streak while stick close to Liverpool at the top of the table. On paper, Manchester City are the clear favorites, although several key players remain injured. It is unlikely they will drop any more points. However, Brighton cannot be underestimated, as they too are eager to improve after two consecutive defeats to Liverpool. Regardless of the outcome of the match, Manchester City position in the table will remain unchanged, unless Liverpool lose to Aston Villa. Overall, Pep Guardiola is not used to losing streaks of up to 4 games.

Brighton have not lost at home this season. Welbeck is in great form and players like Mitoma and Rutter are capable of causing problems for the Manchester City defense. Brighton can also get positive contributions from their substitutes when needed. It's not easy to play away against Brighton, one of the most creative teams in the league with different options in attack.

Manchester City's recent poor performances and surprise mistakes, especially in defense, could be an opportunity for Brighton. Manchester City will want to end their bad run, but they are up against a tough opponent. Both teams will want to win and will not back down. I think it will be a very enjoyable game and I see Brighton as the team closest to victory.
My favorite team to win between Brighton and Manchester City obviously would be Manchester City but due to their recent predicament. Which Pep Guardiola has not been able to address. He is still trying to figure out how to use the current players to fit into the game. If you watch the last match against Sporting CP, Foden was doing all the work. Nobody to feed Erling Haaland the ball to score, due to the absence of Rodri and some unique players. This has affected the team so badly.

With the names of the Brighton players you mentioned. I see it as a win for Brighton. And let us still say that apart from the low performance of Manchester City now, Brighton has always been a team that can withstand big teams, as well as the advantage they have in playing at Home in today's game. Hopefully if Brighton fail to win today then it might be a draw game in the end.

In today's premier League fixture between Brighton football club and Manchester city, the citizens would be looking forward to getting out of their winning drought after suffering two straight loses in the league against Bournemouth and in the champions league against sporting Lisbon. Manchester city would be presented with opportunity of redeeming themselves once again by getting back to winning ways against old foes Brighton who also would be seeking to stop Pep Guardiola 's boys from taking all 3 points in what seems to be a must win for both teams. Its an important game for the two sides and a lot would be at stake and the three points here would be very vital for either teams, so I think Manchester city are going to win this one.

Liverpool and Villa game looks like it is going to be an exciting one. I know that Liverpool is leading the league right now, but Villa isn't a bad team and we are going to see things change a bit without a doubt. What we can't see right now would be just how strong Villa could be as a competition to Liverpool. I am expecting a draw here seriously, I know many think Liverpool will win, and they may still end up getting the win, but I am seriously expecting a draw from from this game.

With the way Villa has been with Unai Emery, if they can get some more money on their hands, they can actually become a team that could turn into a title contender in a few years. All they need is a bit more money, they are already in top four level right now with the way they are, and that is with so much less money than other teams, if they could get some more money then they could actually do much better and go for a title, not saying they will win, but could finish top three easily.

Manchester City currently has the best defenders as well as the best finishers, so where is Manchester City's problem? 
Basically, Manchester City is currently not performing well in the midfield position. The players who are great from midfield to supply the ball to the strikers are not able to play regularly in the eleven for some reason and we can see this effect in the whole match. When the opposing team finds a weakness, they will plan accordingly and every team is currently playing against Manchester City with such a plan. Unless Manchester City does well in midfield, it is difficult to expect Manchester City's overall performance in their favour.
While Manchester City is looking for their seventh title in eight years things are looking not easy for them currently they are on 3 matches losing streak in all competitions as they lost to Tottenham in EFL Cup after this having defeat against Bournemouth in Premier League, but they have the worst time while they visit to Sporting where they concede 4 goals and their attack were completely out of touch with score only one goal.

They conceded 8 goals in last 3 games and score only 3 goals mean things are not as they were doing from start of the season injuries and players unavailability are hurting them badly which is surely going to give advantage to their challengers as well in today game they are going to visit Brighton which is also not easy rival even result is not hurting them on league table, but things could be problematic if they keep going like they are playing into last three games.

This must be evaluated more quickly by Pep Guardiola because if they don't have options, the match against Brighton will be a little more difficult for them to win the match. Although currently Brighton itself is also in poor form after suffering two consecutive defeats against Liverpool. But Man City must also be careful because they could make a surprise in the match.

If some injured players cannot be played, then the composition of the players that will be played by Pep Guardiola will still be the same so that their chances of winning the match are slightly smaller. Pep Guardiola must really make an evaluation in the upcoming match so as not to lose again.

At least after few seasons of dominance in the league and Europe it is actually not too to see Pep and his team struggling for a while although they will definitely bounce back. For me it is clear that over the years Manchester city strength has always been a he midfield area although we can’t take away the importance of the other departments too but the midfield seems to me as their biggest asset and with their two best players which are Rodri and De Bruyne, since the two of them went out of the team I think Manchester City have been having it a little bit difficult to actually win matches which is heavily due to lack of chances not been created. Before even the winless run started they had issues with actually winning comfortably and you can see them winning with little goal margin.

Nonetheless I see them winning this game against Brighton because they still have the squad to hurt anyone in Europe and with Brighton finding it hard to score goals now it will be much easier going forward for Manchester city

You are right dear this season Premier League is more competitive. Manchester City used to dominate but now other teams have chance. Last season Manchester City only lost four games but this season they are losing more. Top teams like Manchester City Arsenal and Liverpool will likely lose six games each by end of season. This shows Premier League is getting tougher. Chelsea has changed a lot under Coach Pochettino. They are now a strong team unlike the past two seasons. Pochettino deserves praise for building such a good team.

I don't think the premier league has become more competitive as Manchester city dominance has reduced but I think Manchester city are in a bad form because some of their key players aren't available for them to be used and Pep Guadiola doesn't have other better options to use and this is making him to lose games that were previously easy for him to win. We have more quality managers in the premier league now but let us wait for when Manchester city are back in form as their injured players return before we can see how the league is going to be before we can make conclusions. When Manchester city are in form, I don't think any manager can defeat them.


Yeah, that's it, you nailed the point. Manchester City struggled in games due to missing key players, but it's only that. Their high-line strategy also led to bad results. If they could stick to the back 4 and leave their highline strategy, i think they might be fine. The problem is that they still so stubborn to use the highline strategy which was not fit to their gameplay. I'm feeling fine if they are going back to their old strategy.

It's not only me who have been critizing their highline strategy, but i have heard many of city fans were also concerning the same thing as me. The good thing is we will have De Bruyne back.. Hee can help us stop struggling to beat any team and a small change in our strategy will help us a lot.

Also, the comeback of De Bruyne has been confirmed by EPL's injury table above.
