Manchester City - Brighton Prediction, Picks and Tips

A midweek round is scheduled for this week in the Premier League. On Wednesday evening, Manchester City will be visited by low flyer Brighton & Hove Albion in its own Etihad Stadium. The home team has been unbeaten for thirteen games in a row and hopes to continue that series against the resort club.

The Premier League title fight has not been as exciting in recent years as it will be this season. Of course we will only be in January, but five teams seem to be competing for the national championship in the coming months. The fight seems to be between Liverpool, Manchester United, Leicester City, Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester City: the current top-5 of the Premier League. Of all those teams, Manchester City is currently the lowest in the ranking. That is quite striking. Pep Guardiola's team has 29 points. It is more than a week and a half ago when Manchester City last came into action in competition: Chelsea were defeated 1-3 on January 3. In the week that followed, Manchester City also achieved success in both the Carabao Cup (Manchester United were defeated 0-2) and the FA Cup (Birmingham City were sent home with a 3-0 defeat on Sunday afternoon). Guardiola has now remained unbeaten with Manchester City in his last thirteen games.

Brighton & Hove Albion hopes for a stunt at the Etihad Stadium on Wednesday evening. That chance is not that great, because The Seagulls have never managed to book a victory in Manchester. It must be said that the match between Manchester City and Brighton in Manchester has only been played eight times before. Nevertheless, there is a small chance that Brighton will achieve a good result in the stadium of The Citizens on Wednesday evening for the first time. After all, Brighton has not won any of the last eight games it played in the Premier League. Just like last season, Brighton is also a relegation candidate in the Premier League this season. Last season, The Seagulls eventually finished well in fifteenth. However, Brighton currently has to settle for seventeenth place in the Premier League. The lead over the relegation zone is only three points in favor of Graham Potter and his team.
