Man City vs Brighton score prediction
Manchester City have shown they are fallible in recent weeks, but you still have to be brave to bet against a home win this weekend. The return of Rodri will massively improve the balance of this City side, offering them greater structure in central areas.
That midfield battle could be decisive at the Etihad, with an impressive performance from Carlos Baleba against Liverpool showing what Brighton can offer in central areas. The Seagulls have a tendency to show up in big games, having already beaten Manchester United and Newcastle this campaign, and De Zerbi will have had two weeks to conjure up a master plan to stump the champions.
However, Brighton have themselves shown plenty of weakness in the past four matches, making City fairly strong favourites for Saturday’s meeting.
Prediction: Man City 3-1 Brighton
