MANCHESTER CITY
Manchester City are 1st on the table with 74 points from 31 played matches. They are one point ahead of Liverpool. The Citizens are set to duel Liverpool to the end for the title, while it looks increasingly likely that they’ll finish the campaign with a Champions League final meeting. Before that, City have seven games left to secure the title, which could lead to a bit more conservatism.
When City and Liverpool went head-to-head in 2018/19, Pep Guardiola’s side left their swashbuckling ways behind. Their games got tighter, with more emphasis on defence. In their final 10 games in that campaign, City picked up five 1-0 wins and three 2-0 victories.
Worth noting that, Manchester City are without a win in the last three games in all competitions. In the previous match, they lost 3-2 at Wembley Stadium in the FA Cup semifinal against Liverpool.
BRIGHTON & HOVE ALBION
Brighton will look to make it three high profile scalps on the trot when they travel to face Premier League champions Manchester City on Wednesday. The Seagulls had gone seven league games without a win but have visited north London twice in the past week and picked up victories over Arsenal and Tottenham.
Though it’s been an incredible week for Brighton, who ended their winless run with victories at Arsenal and Spurs, the Seagulls haven’t won three consecutive league games since October 2018 under Chris Hughton. Ending that wait will be difficult here, with City locked in on the title after their FA Cup exit.
Brighton side have seen under 2.5 goals in 75% of their league games this term. The visitors have now conceded only once across their last three, while they’ve let in 17 goals across their 16 away matches.

OUR MAN CITY VS. BRIGHTON & HOVE ALBION BETTING TIPS
Even though the hosts have never lost a home league game against Brighton (W9 D2), the only sides to concede more than twice at City in 2022 are Championship Fulham and a hapless Man United side, so don’t expect Brighton to be blown away. Given that, we are backing City to win with under 2.5 goals to be scored for our first of today’s betting tips.
Kevin De Bruyne has scored 11 Premier League goals this season. The Belgian has scored in six of his last seven home league games, hitting eight goals in that run. He’s expected to return to fitness in time for this one, so for our second solo prediction, we are backing him to be the man to make the difference for City.
