Manchester City vs Brighton Prediction & Betting Tips - Premier League
by Daniel Ngulu | in Premier League Prediction
Manchester City are hoping to get back to winning ways when they welcome Brighton at the Etihad Stadium on Wednesday. Going into this game City are top of the league standings with 74 points while Brighton are 10th on 40 points. Manchester City are coming from a 3-2 loss to Liverpool, which eliminated them from the FA Cup, further reducing the number of titles they can win this season. They however remain in pole position for the league title and also have prospects for the UEFA Champions League. City are coming from three straight winless outings, two having ended in draws before the Liverpool defeat. These three were very tough matches and can’t be compared with this one. They have scored two or more goals in three of their last five matches and go into this game with three clean sheets in five matches. In the Premier League, Manchester City are unbeaten in the last five matches, with three clean sheets. Meanwhile they have lost just once in their last 10 home matches in the league.
Brighton have picked up some pace in their recent matches; they go into this game unbeaten in three matches, with two straight wins. They beat Arsenal 2-1 and most recently sunk Tottenham 1-0, both away from home. They have a third straight game against a team in the top six and will be gunning for another shock result. This is a fixture they have lost nine times in 10 meetings but they will be hoping the momentum they have picked in the last three games swings them past the league leaders. In the first meeting this season, Brighton suffered a 4-1 loss at home and with two away wins, they will be charged for this. In their away league matches, Brighton have managed two clean sheets in the last five but conceded twice in two of the fives as well.

Our Manchester City vs Brighton Prediction
Manchester City will be seeking a quick response after their loss to Liverpool and this game presents the right setup. With just one point in the lead, and Liverpool hot on their heels, City will feel this is a must-win game. Brighton aren’t the strongest attackers around and meet City who are much capable of ending their three-game unbeaten run. We will back City to win with clean sheet here.
