Following an unlucky draw with Chelsea, Manchester City are eager to return to winning ways in the Premier League. Given their fine home record, our prediction points toward a 3-0 home win. The Citizens dominated the Chelsea game, but eventually conceded a goal in the fourth minute of the stoppage time. Pep Guardiolaâs men, though, have won 8 of their last 9 home games, with the team averaging 2.40 goals per match. Both Ruben Dias and Josko Guardiol are major doubts after limping off with injuries in Sundayâs clash, but Pep Guardiola has strength in depth. The Seagulls, on the other hand, did well to beat Burnley 2-0 at home at the weekend, but given their recent struggles on the road, away win should not be considered. It has to be noted that Fabian Hurzelerâs troops have been scoring only 1.00 goals per game on the road. Important winger Yankub Minteh is rated oubtful for the visiting side after missing the Burnley game with injury.
