Unlike Liverpool, Pep Guardiola’s men enjoyed a quiet mid-week in which they have been preparing for their title deciding clash with Brighton.
Most of the pressure is likely to rest on City’s shoulders with the Citizens having everything to lose. That will no doubt help the Reds who proved just how strong they can be when the pressure is on the opposition.
On paper, Manchester City should win this fixture by four or five goals and return home without any further questions asked. However, with the title hanging in the balance, anything on paper goes straight out of the window.
Brighton have struggled over the past few months however, Chris Houghton’s men looked much improved in their 1-1 draws with Arsenal and Newcastle.
While the Seagulls may not have enough quality to get a shock win over the Citizens, they do have the ability to frustrate opposition at the Amex stadium.
With this mind, the recommendation is to back an away win by only by a margin of one goal. The current price on that bet is 16/5.
