Brighton V Man City Match Overview
Manchester City and Brighton will try to bounce back after defeats during their meeting on the South Coast on Sunday.
City had produced a performance of the opening day in Wolves which indicated that pretenders to strong contenders resume the title of Premier League. However, they were insipids at home against Tottenham last week, displaying a deserved 2-0 defeat.
It was a frustrating start to the season for Brighton, who conceded a late equalizer against Fulham in their first game before being punished for debauchery in a 2-0 defeat in Everton.
City won 19 of her 30 Premier League games with the Seagulls, but was beaten in this match last season, Joao Pedro and Matt O’riley delivered a late turnover after the opening of Erling Haaland.
But Pedro is now a Chelsea player, and Fabian Hurzeler’s men were far from clinical in front of the goal, scoring only once despite the most anticipated fourth (3.91) of the League.
However, the fact that Brighton has created such good chances is about the quality they own, and Pep Guardiola knows that the city can be bad to take them lightly.
“A very good team,” said Guardiola about Brighton at his pre-match press conference on Friday.
“They proved it last season and the previous ones. For a while, a very long time, it’s a very good team.”
