Manchester City vs Brentford Team News:
Manchester City:
For the visit of Brentford, City has just two injury worries to be concerned about: Cole Palmer, who would not have started anyway, and Gabriel Jesus, who are the only two players who aren’t available. In the meanwhile, Jesus has failed to shake off the niggles from international duty and will not be included in the squad, while his compatriot Ederson is preparing to take over in goal from Zack Steffen.
Additionally, Ruben Dias and Aymeric Laporte are expected to return to the starting lineup to create a familiar partnership in front of the Brazilian, with Raheem Sterling and Bernardo Silva also expected to reprise their positions in the starting XI.
Brentford:
Bryan Mbeumo and Yoane Wissa were both absent from Brentford’s loss to Everton after testing positive for COVID-19, but the pair might be available to play the champions if they recover in time. The same cannot be said for Mathias Jorgensen, Tarique Fosu, and Julian Jeanvier, while new recruit Christian Eriksen is extremely unlikely to be given a green light to play at this stage in his development.
After a disappointing day in the cup, Frank will almost probably consider restoring Frank Onyeka and Shandon Baptiste to the starting XI, while the return of David Raya to goal has been met with wide arms by the supporters. Ethan Pinnock, who played for Jamaica on the international stage, should also be given another chance.
Manchester City vs Brentford Probable Playing XI:
Manchester City possible starting lineup:
Ederson; Walker, Dias, Laporte, Cancelo; Silva, Rodri, De Bruyne; Mahrez, Foden, Sterling
Brentford possible starting lineup:
Raya; Ajer, Jansson, Pinnock; Canos, Norgaard, Onyeka, Jensen, Henry; Toney, Mbeumo
Manchester City vs Brentford Betting Predictions:
Match Betting: Manchester City win (1.11)
Draw (9.00)
Brentford win (26.00)
The One-Liner Explainer:
Brentford may start to look over their shoulders if this game goes the way it is predicted to if they go from the high of defeating Arsenal on an opening day to the low of being in this situation. The Bees are will travel away from home to Manchester City, who are in imperious form as they chase the Premier League championship, so another routine victory is almost certain for the champs in midweek.
