Manchester City have face consequence when losing the important player Kevin De Bruyne and Rodri, loss two matches in a row is proof how Pep Guardiola scheme not really working with absent both player exactly Rodri absent have bigger impact. In Champion League, Manchester City still in the winning trend but faced difficult in Premier League match after defeating by Wolves and Arsenal. Next match, Manchester City against Brighton Albion and possibility with Pep Guardiola stopping loss trend and return to top perform.

Have many days with international break give time for Pep Guardiola looking for right replacement for Rodri and De Bruyne position, will next match against Brighton Albion back to winning trend? or Manchester City have get third loss in Premier League and become bad start for Premier League tittle race.

In the Champions League, Manchester City have not faced a team that is much more balanced so there are no big problems for them at the moment, but if these two players are absent for a long time due to injury it will cause Manchester City problems when facing a team that is much more balanced with them. Next they will face Brighton Albion at the Etihad for the English league and if they suffer another defeat or draw it will make Manchester City's move to extend the list of defeats.

Even so, I am sure that in this match Manchester City will be able to secure full points because Brighton Albion are also not in the best condition and surprisingly they lost to Chelsea and Aston Villa by quite a big score. In the last match against Liverpool, Brighton Albion also played to a draw they had taken the lead, but because the defense was not solid Liverpool managed to equalize until the match ended in a draw.

even though it's still early in the season but Manchester City has already suffered 2 defeats and Manchester City still has 30 more matches to play in the Premier League, I'm a little worried about Manchester City's current performance which is not yet completely consistent and the absence of 2 players in the main squad Kevin De Bruyne and Rodri will slightly affect their performance in facing matches in the Premier League and also in the Champions League. Pep Guardiola must take quick steps to replace these 2 players so that Manchester City does not experience a decline.

Manchester City should be able to win this match because they will be playing at home so this will be an advantage for Man City, but we also cannot underestimate Brighton, he is not completely in bad condition, he also suffered the same 2 defeats as Manchester City and Brighton were in 6th position at the moment so this match is quite important for them to win points or Brighton will hold the match to a draw
