Brentford take on the visitors Manchester City in the round 23 match of English Premier League. The match will be played on Monday, February 5th at Brentford Community Stadium (London).
Brentford are not as good as in previous years. The Bees once played in the top division of the country, but they made their Premier League debut only in 2021. Under the guidance of Thomas Frank, they showed quite confident mid-table results twice in a row. In the spring of the previous year, they were even considered a theoretical contender for a European competition spot. However, after the suspension of Toney in May, the Danish manager couldn't adequately replace him. While it wouldn't be accurate to say that the London club is plummeting, their results have been modest, with a significant number of losses since November. Fortunately, Ivan Toney returned and immediately scored a goal, helping his team defeat Nottingham Forest. He also scored against Tottenham, but the Spurs managed to score one more goal in that match.

Manchester City crowned last season with a treble, finally winning the UEFA Champions League half a year ago. Subsequently, they secured new international trophies, the UEFA Super Cup, and the Club World Cup. However, Guardiola spoke about new challenges in December. Despite losing in the English Super Cup and the League Cup, Pep didn't seem to prioritize winning those competitions based on the squad composition. There were some setbacks in the Premier League at that time, leading to a drop from the top spot in the current standings. However, the grand club started gaining momentum, not only in the Premier League but also in the cup, knocking out Tottenham 1-0 thanks to Ake's late goal. With the return of De Bruyne, they secured a victory over Newcastle, elevating them to the second position, with only Liverpool ahead. The match against Burnley was also as expected, and only a late consolation goal saved the outsider from a complete defeat.
In the penultimate season, the grand club defeated the debutant twice. However, in the 2022/2023 season, the London club unexpectedly delivered a flawless result against the Citizens. The Citizens are significantly stronger, so you can confidently bet on their away victory against the Bees with a handicap of -1.0 goals scored.
Prediction for the match: Manchester City to win with -1.0 handicap.
