Manchester City will be looking to get back to winning ways against Brighton on Saturday afternoon following their defeat to Liverpool last weekend.

Pep Guardiola’s side will feel they should have got something out of the game at Anfield but they will be heavy favourites for the three points when they face the Seagulls.

The away side haven’t gotten off to a great start under their new manager Roberto De Zerbi, who hasn’t won any of his first four matches in charge.

In terms of team news, City defender John Stones is back in training after a hamstring injury but Kyle Walker (groin) and Kalvin Phillips (shoulder) are still out of contention.

Manchester City’s Predicted XI To Face Brighton:

Ederson, Akanji, Dias, Ake, Cancelo, De Bruyne, Rodri, Silva, Mahrez, Haaland, Grealish

Brighton have three fitness concerns, with Levi Colwill a doubt due to a knock, while Kaoru Mitoma (ankle) and Jakub Moder (knee) are both unavailable.

Brighton’s Predicted XI:

Sanchez, Lamptey, Veltman, Dunk, Webster, Estupinan, Mac Allister, Caicedo, Gross, Welbeck, Trossard

The bookies expect City to secure a win this weekend with Coral pricing them at 2/9 odds-on. A draw is 6/1 with Sky Bet while a victory for the Seagulls is 15/1 at Unibet.

Predicted Score – 3-0 to City
