Season so far
Brighton are eighth in the EPL standings with four wins, four draws and two losses with 17 goals scored and 14 conceded for a total of 16 points from a possible 30. Nottingham Forest in third are within three points but two of those four wins have come at home and it has been over one month since the Amex last saw a home victory. City were going fairly well up until their recent blip but their current position is still salvageable with seven wins from 10 and two draws for 23 points from 10 Games to sit second. All three of their losses have come on the road while their draw against Newcastle United also came on the road which suggests that there is an issue there.
Team news
Brighton: Like City, the hosts have had injury issues of their own of late. Do not expect to see James Milner, Adam Webster nor Solly March here. There are also lingering doubts over Lewis Dunk, Yankuba Minteh, Joao Pedro and Matt O'Riley as well as Carlos Baleba.
Possible Brighton XI: Verbruggen; Veltman, Van Hecke, Julio, Estupinan; Kadioglu, Hinshelwood, Ayari, Mitoma; Rutter, Welbeck.
City: It is more of a question of who is available than who is missing given the lengthy list of absentees of late. Kevin de Bruyne could make his return from injury here although that is not yet 100%. However, John Stones, Ruben Dias, Jack Grealish, Oscar Bobb and Rodri are all definitely out of this one.
Possible City XI: Ederson; Lewis, Akanji, Simpson-Pusey, Gvardiol; Kovacic; Savinho, Foden, Silva, Nunes; Haaland.
Prediction
With players missing on both sides and neither team capable of keeping their opponents at bay much of late, expect this to be a goal-filled and entertaining encounter which possibly finishes level in the end. Pick: Brighton 2, City 2.
