Team News

Man City
Brentford
  • Kyle Walker remains out.
  • Kalvin Phillips returned to action in the League Cup win over Chelsea and could play some part in this game here.
  • Kristoffer Ajer, Pontus Jansson, Thomas Strakosha, Aaron Hickey and Charlie Goode are all ruled out.
  • Vitaly Janelt and Shandon Baptiste are both doubts.
  • Christian Norgaard made his first appearance since August in midweek and could be in line to play some part in this game here.

Prediction

  • Manchester City come into this game on the back of knocking Chelsea out of the League Cup on Wednesday. They have won their last three games in the league in a row and have scored the most goals overall, with 39 scored altogether in the league.
  • Brentford went out of the League Cup on Tuesday, losing to Gillingham on penalties. They are winless in their last four games, though only lost one of those games. They are 11th in the table and yet are only four points clear of the relegation zone and ten points away from the top four.
  • It is expected City will win comfortably, especially if Erling Haaland is back in the starting lineup.

  • Bald

  • Ivan toenail did it

  • Bees have beaten City & Utd this season, both times in away, correct me if I'm wrong please. Great counterattack in 2nd goal.

  • @dib Not away against United, Brentford's last win at Old Trafford was in 1937.

  • I wonder if Southgate regrets not taking Toney to the WC after his performance and 2 goals today.

  • @Marbella If he had a chance to change, I'm sure he would still take another full-back.

  • Football can be so unpredictable at times.

  • @Marbella and this weekend is likely to be more unpredictable than most!

  • You have Mahrez on the bench, perhaps the most talented left winger/midfielder in the League, and you bench him most of the time.

  • @Gewoonmoi heh heh heh...pre-rest before resting during the world cup...Pep has lost his mind....

  • @Gewoonmoi Guardiola think he must dribble our expectations hhhhh

  • 25 shots...lol...

  • @AramisMick That doesn't mean anything if they were all harmless. Shots ON goal matter and those were 6-8 !

  • @neumi17 exactly mate...the bestestest team in the world taking harmless shots and playing tikitaka when behind is infuriating to watch...almost like they feel entitled and will win just by showing up...Pep...with a defender on head bandage, just one sub??? Really?? He is taking the piss...

  • Haaland invisible

  • @neumi17 I suspect he was not fully fit.

  • 1-3 shots on goal at halftime, wow

  • @neumi17 Too early, correct are 2-4 shots on target.

  • Brentford win or draw

  • Toney scores despite being left out of the England squad.

  • @Marbella deserves to be called imo

  • Haaland to score 2+ goals @3,00

  • 3-2

  • HT-2+goals

  • Haaland Bruut Force To Score Anytime, Duh

  • Man City to score over 2.5 goals @1.57

  • Man City to score over 2.5 goals @1.57

  • At home, City top the charts goals scored (4.1 per game), conceding the fewest (1 per game), boast a 100% win record and average 65% possession.

  • @Marbella Until now.

  • City 4-0
