Brighton vs Manchester City tips and predictions

Manchester City too short in the betting?

There's not much up for grabs in the match winner odds and the short price for Manchester City makes them a no-bet. Brighton don't look likely to upset the odds but they might give the visitors plenty to think about.

It has not been easy to pull out the key data in this match-up but given the visitors' recent defensive record in their away campaigns, the draw is the recommendation. in their last 3 away matches Manchester City have only conceded 0.7 goals per game on average.

In previous matches in this head-to-head, one of the last 3 has ended in parity.

The betting markets suggest that both sides can score despite the overwhelming favouritism for Manchester City. However, the odds-against for the BTTS No looks slightly more tempting here.

Brighton have drawn 6 of their last 14 matches on their own soil. They drew 1-1 with Burnley last week. Manchester City have drawn 4 of their last 9 matches. This will probably be a tightly contested match-up but with no interest in the match odds for either team, the value available in the draw price makes it the top pick for this game.
