Brentford vs Manchester City – Match Preview and Team News

Team News

Brentford

Brentford have been handed a significant double fitness boost, with both Fábio Carvalho and Reiss Nelson available for selection after recovering from knee and illness issues respectively. Gustavo Nunes has also returned to training, though Paris Maghoma remains out.

Manchester City

Pep Guardiola has reported no new injury concerns following the midweek draw with Monaco. Key midfielder Rodri is available but may have his minutes managed. Sávio and Bernardo Silva are expected to be recalled to the starting XI, but the team is still without Abdukodir Khusanov, Omar Marmoush, and Rayan Aït-Nouri.

Form

Brentford

The Bees are in excellent form, having won four of their last six home league games. Their 3-1 victory over Manchester United last weekend was their most impressive performance of the season. Furthermore, they are one of the most clinical teams in the league, boasting the second-highest shot conversion rate.

Manchester City

City are unbeaten in their last six matches but have drawn their last two important games against Arsenal and Monaco. A concerning trend has seen them fail to win their last two away league games despite leading for long periods. A victory here would be a record-breaking 250th top-flight win for Pep Guardiola with the club.

Predicted Lineups

Brentford predicted XI: Kelleher; Kayode, Collins, Van den Berg, Hickey; Henderson, Yarmolyuk; Ouattara, Damsgaard, Schade; Thiago

Manchester City predicted XI: Donnarumma; Stones, Dias, Gvardiol, O’Reilly; Rodri; Reijnders, Foden, Savinho, Doku; Haaland
