Manchester City vs Brentford Prediction Match Details
Manchester City faces Brentford on Tuesday night in a rescheduled match from the 18th round at the Etihad Stadium in the Premier League.
Manchester City Preview & Form
Manchester City suffered a slight blow in their quest for the fourth consecutive Premier League title after sharing points in their last Premier League match. The reigning champions currently sit in third place with 53 points from 24 games, and they are now two behind Arsenal in second and four behind Liverpool at the top of the table.
Pep Guardiola saw his team fail to win a game for the first time in 12 matches across all competitions after Manchester City salvaged a late equalizer against Chelsea. The Cityzens have the best home record as they remain unbeaten in all the Premier League games and will be keen to build on the momentum. Manchester City have scored a total of 57 goals this season in the Premier League.
Brentford Preview & Form
Brentford’s recent form has continued to be poor, with their last result in the Premier League seeing them defeated 4-1 by Premier League leader Liverpool. The defeats see the Bees fearing relegation, as they currently sit 14th in the standings, six points above the relegation zone.
The Bees will capitalize on their last away victory against the Wolves, which ended their five-match back-to-back away defeats in the league.
Goal scoring has not been an issue for Thomas Frank’s side. The Bees have scored at least one goal in four of their last five league matches, especially with the return of Ivan Toney, who has scored four goals since returning to professional football, but Brentford have conceded 21 goals in their last ten games.
Manchester City vs Brentford Betting Tips
Manchester City will look to avoid a replica of their last encounter against Brentford, with Ivan Toney stepping up to score a brace at the Etihad Stadium last season to secure a late three points for the Bees. We believe Manchester City will get a win in the match.
