Match Preview
Brentford is by no means a walkover for the “citizens”, as the statistics of personal meetings make sure. In the 21st century, the teams played 6 matches (all in the current decade), and the bees beat the favorite twice. However, they lost both meetings last season (1:3; 0:1).

Goaloo Prediction
We believe that the international break will not affect Manchester City’s current form. The team is in great shape and will continue to build up the gap from the competition. However, next week they have two top matches at once - against Inter Milan in the Champions League and Arsenal in the Premier League. This suggests that we may well see a rotation from Pep Guardiola.
This arrangement significantly increases the chances of the guests in the upcoming meeting. And if you take into account the fact that Thomas Frank's team already regularly poses a huge threat against Man City, it is worth considering the option of betting on an outsider. It seems to us that Brentford to win with a handicap (+2.5) is optimal. This bet has played in all face–to-face confrontations of rivals in the 21st century, as well as in the last 17 matches of the Bees in the Premier League - a very convincing statistic. Let's assume that the meeting at the Etihad will be productive and will end with a score of 3:2.

Pick: Brentford Handicap(+2.5)
