Manchester City vs Brighton and Hove Albion Prediction 29 September 2018
On September 29 2018 at 15:00 at the Etihad Stadium in Manchester in the forthcoming game of the 7th game week of the English Premier League the local Manchester City will host Brighton and Hove Albion. The current champions are meeting one of the teams which will have to fight for staying in the league as they are really poor away from home. The main question is how many goals Manchester City will score.
After six matches played in the new season Manchester City have 16 points and this result lets them stay on the second place. At the moment the Citizens have 12 goals score and that’s the best result in the English Premier League. In the previous match Guardiola’s side won against Cardiff with the devastating 5:0 score and in the League Cup they won against Oxford Untied 3:0.
As for Brighton, they take the 13th place in the table with 5 points gained. This team is really solid at home while in the away matches it looks really helpless. This season they outplayed Manchester United at home while in the last match they lost to Tottenham with the minimum 1:2 score. Yet, in their three away games they only drew once.
Before the important match in the Champions League against Hoffenheim the Citizens probably won’t spend all of their strength in the average match against the outsiders of the EPL. Anyway, they are obviously much stronger compared to Brighton and that’s why it seems to us that they are much more likely to win and that there will be comparatively a lot of goals scored.
