Match Preview
The Premier League action continues in midweek, as Man City chase a victory that will see them move to within a point of Liverpool at the top of the standings. City come into this round after dropping points in their previous fixture after drawing 1-1 at home against Chelsea on Saturday. However, their overall form remains very strong after winning five of their previous six in the league.
Brentford continue to battle for points at the opposite end of the standings, as the Bees have recorded just a single victory across their last four in the Premier League. That run of form means that they come into this round sitting just six points above the relegation places in the current standings.

City boasts an excellent home record against the Bees after winning six of their last eight. However, one of their defeats against Brentford was suffered in this exact fixture last term. But, City did land a dominant 3-1 success in the reverse fixture earlier this month, meaning that they could become the third team to record two straight league wins against a rival in the same calendar month.
City’s record in midweek matches also deserves a lot of respect, as they are unbeaten in their last 47 home midweek fixtures in the Premier League. They have also recorded victories in 26 of their last 27, and each of their previous 12. Meanwhile, Brentford have suffered seven defeats in eleven away matches this term.
Man City vs Brentford Prediction
City should have the quality to bounce back to winning ways this week, and we could see Erling Haaland bagging a few goals after misplacing his shooting boots against Chelsea in his previous appearance.
