Preview

Manchester City will be looking to bounce back from their loss to Liverpool when they take on Brighton at home on Saturday. The Citizens are currently sitting in second place in the Premier League table with 23 points, four points behind Arsenal who are sitting at the top. Brighton, on the other hand, will be eager to end their four-game winless run but that is unlikely to come against a strong Manchester City side. They started the season well but have dropped to the eighth position now as a result of their winless run.
