    Expect an open, high-scoring game with Manchester City slight favourites at the Etihad — Haaland and City’s home scoring form give them the edge. Brighton remain dangerous despite several attacking absences, so a draw or narrow City win is realistic.

    Manchester City are slight favourites at home with Haaland in form, while Brighton are missing six players plus two doubts. Both sides played the League Cup draw two days ago, and the last meeting finished 2-2. Expect an open, high-scoring game.

    Just three days after their 2-2 League Cup thriller at the Etihad, Manchester City host Brighton again in league action. Both teams carry immense firepower, but Brighton's mounting injuries to key attacking options give the league leaders a decisive edge. Expect an open encounter where City's superior finishing proves the difference.
