Last weekend Manchester City pleased the fans with a victory and this time the team achieved success by playing with ten men. Moreover, Erling Haaland scored the decisive goal from the penalty spot in stoppage time, which has not happened to the team since November 2017. Pep Guardiola beamed with pride for his team, noting that “it was one of their best performances since he took over as they played over 60 minutes with ten players.” Moreover, for the citizens this victory over Fulham was the third in a row in the Premier League. However, after 13 rounds Citizen has 10 victories and two draws, which brought 32 points and two points to the leader. Success in the upcoming game could put the hosts ahead for the winter break or just a few hours if Arsenal do well. This week the team rallied and managed to fight their way to the next stage of the English League Cup after beating Chelsea with a score 2:0 at home. Mendy and Walker, who has a muscle injury, will not be able to play today.
Since the beginning of September, Brentford has only one victory, which only adds to the guests’ desire to get out of the protracted crisis. In the last game, the capital had a chance to get a victory over Nottingham Forest, but already in the seventh minute added by the referee, Zanka equalized the score by scoring into his own net. Head coach Thomas Frank called the setback “painful” and more suffering could follow today as his team lost their last four games in a row to the Citizens. Moreover, there are losses in the coach’s clip. Star striker Ivan Toni will not be able to play in connection with the investigation into the betting case. At the same time, there is a complete mess in the defense. In the last three matches, they conceded until the 25th minute. Before this game the Londoners had three victories and seven draws, which corresponds to 16 points and 11th position in the standings. Today Noorgad, Baptiste, Ryvok, Good, Janelt, Strakosha and Jansson, who has a hip injury, will not be able to play.
