Brighton vs Manchester City Prediction & Betting Tips - Premier League
by Ian John | in Premier League Prediction
Brighton face Manchester City on Thursday in a Premier League clash for the purist. Under manager Roberto De Zerbi, Brighton have become one of the most attractive passing teams in the Premier League. They deservedly qualified for Europe last season on the back of it and sit in the top half of the table once again this season. They face a Manchester City side who were knocked out of the Champions League on penalties last week by Real Madrid. However, City bounced back to claim a spot in the FA Cup Final at the weekend with a 1-0 win over Chelsea. The Seagulls have lost to Liverpool and Arsenal in recent weeks, Manchester City fans will be hoping they make it a trio of losses against the top three here.Limited Offer. Currently at DraftKings

Brighton - Manchester City: Form Analysis
Brighton have lost just twice at the AMEX this season, but have won just seven of their 15 home games so far this season. They come into this game with just one win in their last seven games, with three draws in that run. After rattling in four past Crystal Palace and then five at Sheffield United in February, the goals dried up for the home side with Brighton scoring just four goals in their next seven games. That will be a worry for the home fans given the goalscoring form of their opponents at present.
Manchester City still are unbeaten in 90 or 120 minutes of football for 29 games. Their only blemish, a penalty defeat to Real Madrid after two draws forced extra time and penalties. Domestically, Pep Guardiola’s team have been impressive of late, especially in the Premier League where they sit third in the table. After two successive draws away to Liverpool and at home to Arsenal, Man City have won their last three EPL games, scoring 13 goals and conceding four. They have beaten Brighton already this season, a 2-1 win at the Etihad in October. They have a great record against Brighton in recent years. City have won 12 of the last 14 against their south-coast hosts.

Brighton & Manchester City Squad Analysis
Brighton manager Roberto De Zerbi will have a relatively small squad of players to pick from for this game with ten Brighton players on the injury list. Those unlikely to play any part in the game are defenders Pervis Estupinan, Tariq Lamptey and Adam Webster. Midfielders injured include Solly March, Jack Hinshelwood, Kaoru Mitoma, James Milner and Billy Gilmour and in attack both Evan Ferguson and Julio Enciso have been ruled out. Having so many key players out injured has been a real issue for Brighton at various points of this campaign
In contrast, Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola has just one injury concern ahead of the game with Brighton. Striker Erling Haaland had not recovered from his knock against Real Madrid to play against Chelsea in the FA Cup semi-final at the weekend. The powerful Norwegian striker is rated to be a 50/50 chance to play, which could mean Julian Alvarez will get to play a more centrally attacking role in the team. Other than their top goalscorer, City have a clean bill of health heading into this fixture. Phil Foden has certainly emerged as one of Manchester City’s top performers this season having scored over 20 goals in all competitions. The England international is one of the favourites for the PFA Player of the Year award, alongside team-mate Rodri.
Brighton - Manchester City Key Points
- Both Brighton’s and Manchester City’s Premier League games have averaged Over 2.5 Goals 63% of the time this season.
- Brighton have won just one of their last seven games, losing three and drawing three.
- Manchester City have gone 29 games unbeaten in all competitions.
- Four of Manchester City’s last six Premier League games have seen Over 2.5 Goals.
- Manchester City have scored 13 goals in their last three Premier League games, conceding 4.

Our Brighton vs Manchester City Prediction
Brighton vs Manchester City - Other Interesting Predictions
Julian Alvarez (Manchester City) to score at any time
With Erling Haaland an injury doubt for the game, Manchester City may not want to risk their 20-goal Norwegian striker. That could mean a start for Julian Alvarez. The Argentinean World Cup winner has eight goals in 31 Premier League appearances this season but has not scored in any of the last 11 Premier League games. He is certainly due a goal and he did score one of the two City goals in their 2-1 win over Brighton earlier this season. Our second prediction here is for Julian Alvarez to score at any time.
