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
Yes I totally agree with you mate, Manchester City next match against Brighton is likely going to be a win match for them because they have all it takes to win Brighton. Although Brighton seem to be performing really well on there last matches because there last eight games they have won three and draw two matches although is quite poor but there performance is good.
But however there is no how we can compare Manchester City with Brighton because even with the absence of Kevin De Bruyne Manchester city will still win the match.
But just like you said Brighton will always try all possible best to make sure they either win or draw in other to maintain there possible on the table but actually the match is not going to be easy on them because afte Manchester City has lose on there last matche against Arsenal they will never joke with this match.
