Man City vs. Brighton Prediction, Pick
This bet can be found under the “Match Parlays” tab. Both of these teams score goals. Man City are currently top of the league on goal difference over Arsenal, while Brighton are in third place and five points behind the top two. The Seagulls have scored the most goals this season with 23, while the Citizens have scored the second most with 20. I expect goals to be going in left right and center in this one, but ultimately I think Man City will get the win at home.
Man City have won all four of their home games so far this season, while Brighton have already lost twice when playing big six teams on the road. In all competitions this season the Citizens have played 13 games, winning 10, drawing one and losing two. They haven’t lost a step since the departure of Pep Guardiola and should be able to get their eighth win of the Premier League season in this one.
These teams faced off in the EFL Cup on Wednesday, with Man City advancing in a penalty shootout after a 2-2 draw. While there are sure to be many changes made on both sides for this league game, I still think that match is an indication of what kind of a back-and-forth affair we should be in store for on Saturday. Three or more goals have been scored in four of the last five matches between the teams.
