Football Predictions
The two sides are separated by just one place and one point in the standings after six rounds of fixtures.
Last time out, Phil Foden and Erling Haaland helped Manchester City to a comfortable 2-0 win over Nottingham Forest, despite midfielder Rodri being sent off. Back on home turf this weekend, the Tricky Trees will be looking to get back on track when Brentford come to town.
Thomas Frank’s team were turned over 3-1 at home to Everton last weekend, a setback that means the Bees have banked maximum points from just one of their opening six top-flight assignments of the season.
