Manchester City take on the visitors Brighton in the round 9 match of English Premier League. The match will be played on Saturday, October 21st at
Manchester City received several painful blows before the international break. In the previous season, the Citizens managed to achieve a treble, including finally winning the UEFA Champions League. They have started confidently in the Champions League again. Before that, they won the UEFA Super Cup, even though it was via a penalty shootout. In the Premier League, the Sky Blues also began confidently, despite Kevin De Bruyne's injury. However, in recent matches, they experienced a series of setbacks. It began with their exit from the League Cup after a 0-1 loss to Newcastle, which was attributed to possibly low motivation. But this was followed by a 1-2 loss to Manchester United and a 0-1 defeat to Arsenal, which pushed them back to third place in the league, with Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur overtaking them.

Brighton have been under Roberto De Zebri’s leadership for a year. After the start of the previous season, they unexpectedly lost their manager, Graham Potter, who was lured to Chelsea. However, the unexpected choice of Roberto brought fast and quality results. With the Italian at the helm, they managed to secure a sixth-place finish. As a result, The Seagulls made their debut in the UEFA Europa League, although their success there has been modest: they drew 2-3 with AEK and 2-2 with Marseille. Their League Cup campaign ended with a 0-1 loss to Chelsea. However, in the league, they secured five wins in six matches. They did suffer a painful 1-6 defeat to Aston Villa, but before the international break, they managed a thrilling 2-2 draw with Liverpool.
During the 2021-2022 season, Manchester City won three times in a row. However, in May, the already unmotivated champions allowed Brighton to secure a draw. The Citizens are expected to secure an easy victory under Guardiola's guidance while playing brilliantly. However, the players have just returned from international duty, so we lean towards a total under 3.5 goals.
Prediction for the match: Under 3.5 scored goals.
