Manchester City take on the visitors Brighton in the round 13 match of English Premier League. The match will be played on Saturday, October 22nd at Etihad Stadium (Manchester).
Manchester city have, of course, a huge potential. Moreover, this summer they received the element that was lost in several previous seasons - a truly driving center forward. That was Aguero, but he gradually slowed scoring pace, and then left. However, even without a scorer it was possible to take trophies. And in the off-season, the Citizens won the bet for such a goalscorer as Haaland, and it looks like they hit the jackpot. However, even Erling cannot score literally in every match. And sometimes, as with Aston Villa and Newcastle, his goals are not enough. With Liverpool, the newcomer was completely silent, interrupting his streak, and, with a huge advantage, he didn’t manage to win - on the contrary, Salah’s rather random ball came in response, which turned out to be the only one in the match. Given that it was 0-0 with Copenhagen in the Champions League before, Guardiola had something to think about. But Pep also had time, because his wards rested in the mid-week: the game with Arsenal was postponed due to the fact that the Gunners played in the Europa League.

Brighton were forced to change the manager on the go. Potter, despite the sale of a number of leading players, was able to start well in the new championship, winning 5 of 7 matches in the Premier League. But he was lured to Chelsea. Graham was replaced by Roberto De Zerbi. The ex-coach of Shakhtar Donetsk made his debut in Foggy Albion brightly and on the whole successfully, taking out 3 points from the away match with Liverpool due to Trossard's hat-trick. Then his wards with a fight, but lost to Tottenham. But 0-2 with Brentford was already perceived as a clear failure. As well as the fact that later, in the mid-week, there was only a goalless draw with Nottingham Forest, a newcomer that is worth relegation. Obviously, it's time for a new mentor to win. Although it is unlikely that this will happen in Manchester on Saturday.
Manchester City had 8 head-to-head wins in a row, and only in May ‘2021, when the opponent had already become the champion, Brighton won at home 3-2. The following season, the Citizens began a new winning streak, 4-1 and 3-0. Bookmakers believe that Manchester City will not have any particular problems. We bet that the rested "citizens" will be able to win with a handicap of "-2 goals scored".
Prediction for the match: Manchester City to win with -2.0 handicap.
