Manchester City are looking to keep pace with Arsenal and Liverpool when they travel to Brentford in the Premier League on Sunday afternoon.
The Cityzens suffered late heartbreak at Monaco in the Champions League midweek but must put that to one side when they visit west London. They currently find themselves trailing their title rivals after several early season slip-ups and know victory is of paramount importance at the Gtech Community Stadium.
Erling Haaland’s rich vein of goalscoring form is one of the reasons City will be strong favourites on their visit to the capital, with the Norwegian having scored four over the past week alone. His tally already stands at an astonishing 17 for club and country this season.
Brentford conquered Manchester opponents last weekend as they triumphed against Manchester United in style and the Bees have also claimed points against Chelsea on home soil this season. Keith Andrews will be well aware of the superior threat posed by City, but can take encouragement from his side’s unbeaten home record this term.
Here is guide to this Premier League clash.
