Peter Green - November 10, 2022
Manchester City vs Brentford
England – Premier League
Date: Saturday, 12 November 2022
Kick-off at 13:30 UK / 14:30 CET
Venue: Etihad Stadium
Manchester City host Brentford in the opening game of Matchday 16 of the Premier League on Saturday afternoon at Etihad Stadium.
The bookmakers see the hosts as pretty big favorites for the win, pricing them at just 1.12 to claim the spoils here. It is very understand why because City follows an impressive form throughout this season.
They are currently having an exceptional form as they sit in second place, just two points behind leaders Arsenal. The Sky Blues lost only one of the 13 games played so far in the season.
There is no doubt that they have the same chances of winning the title as they did last season. But for that they need victories consistent. As of now they are on the right track.
The fixture which is going to take place on Saturday is likely to get the result according to their hopes. They face Brentford who are currently 11th in the table with half their points.
Going on, Brentford will not have the highest of spirits to face City, who have won their last three matches. The proof of that is the form of Brentford, who are winless in the last four games. Moreover, they haven’t even managed to win against Nottingham Forest, who are at the bottom of the league table.
Another thing worth mentioning is their defense. They conceded 7 goals in the last three Premier League games. Their opponents in all the three of these games were placed below them in the table.
Expect a Goal-fest when such a defense is faced by the best attacking side in the league. The aforementioned reason will get more solid when the current form of their star striker Erling Haaland is added.
It is clear that City will most likely seal a victory on Saturday. Based on their current form, chances of scoring in both the halves are high against a team like Brentford.
Therefore, we like to place Manchester City to Win Both Halves as the main bet followed by Manchester City to Win & Over 3.5 Goals.
