Amex Stadium

Brighton and Manchester City usually put on a decent spectacle when getting together, and more of the same is expected at Amex Stadium.

Both teams have scored in seven of their last nine meetings, so it is no wonder that bet is as short as 1/2 to come in again this weekend.

For those wanting more value, though, BOYLE Sports have a price boost of 3/1 for each side to hit the target in the first half, and that is our initial Brighton vs Man City prediction.

Head-To-Head

Brighton vs Man City head-to-head record

After Brighton gained promotion in 2018, City won seven straight Premier League meetings by an aggregate scoreline of 21-2.

However, the Seagulls have since fared better, especially on home turf, posting two wins and a draw from the past five encounters here.

Albion took four points off Pep Guardiola’s men last season, prevailing 2-1 at this venue prior to a 2-2 away draw. When it comes to spotting goal-scorer trends, though, we are drawn towards a couple of City players.

Erling Haaland has netted in four of his five games against Brighton, and is an obvious favourite to break the deadlock, but Phil Foden also warrants a mention. The England international has netted on four of his five visits to the Amex, hitting doubles here on two occasions, and struck in a couple of home fixtures during the same period.

Looking at the Brighton vs Man City odds, Foden warrants support in first and anytime goalscorer markets if coming into the starting line-up.

Form Guide

It has been a frustrating start for Albion, who conceded a stoppage-time equaliser when drawing 1-1 here with Fulham before going down 2-0 at Everton.

The scoreline on Merseyside does not do Brighton justice, though, as the Seagulls hit the crossbar and a post while Danny Welbeck had a penalty saved and missed another sitter.

Head coach Fabian Hurzeler said, "Overall, we created enough to win the game and enough chances to score, so that’s the thing to take away."

City kicked off with a convincing 4-0 victory at Wolves, but last season’s defensive woes resurfaced in a 2-0 home defeat by Tottenham.

Defender Ruban Dias insisted: “Not everything was good in our first game and not everything is bad now, so we have to get back to work...it is what it is, it’s football and we look forward.”

It is hard to assess where the Blues stand at this point, but in what should be an open encounter, we feel another BOYLE Sports price boost of 9/4 for an away win and both teams to score is worth adding to our Brighton vs Man City betting tips.
