Match Preview
Man City will have the pressure on their shoulders when they return to Premier League action on Thursday. The reigning champions will come into this round sitting third in the standings, while they are currently four points adrift of Arsenal at the top of the standings. However, City have two games in hand over their main rivals for the league title.
Brighton’s European hopes have been dashed in the second half of the season, as the Seagulls look to be in a race to finish in the top half of the standings. They come into this round sitting tenth, but they could kick off on Thursday in the bottom half. Roberto De Zerbi’s side have gone four matches without a win, losing twice over that period.

Brighton’s record in this fixture would be a major concern ahead of Thursday, with the Seagulls having lost eleven of their 13 Premier League clashes with City. However, the four points that they have picked up against the reigning champions have been picked up in two of their last three home matches against their rivals.
City have been dominant in front of goal against the Seagulls, netting in all 13 matches that they have played against their opponents in the Premier League. Pep Guardiola’s side also boast an excellent midweek record in the competition over the last three seasons, winning 17 of their last 19 matches.
Brighton vs Man City Prediction
Man City’s dominant record in this fixture is very challenging to overlook when making selections this week. For that reason, it could be worth siding with the traveling team to cover the spread at the AMEX Stadium on Thursday.
