Brighton's current form in the Premier League is troubling, as they've only managed to secure one win in their last seven matches and have been knocked out of the Europa League with a heavy defeat. They're now facing a big challenge against Manchester City, a team that has been performing strongly despite a busy schedule. Brighton has struggled both in scoring goals and in their overall performances lately. They've scored just four goals in their last seven league games. Adding to their problems, several key players are injured, including Mitoma, March, Estupinian, and Ferguson, which could significantly weaken their lineup against a team as strong as Manchester City. Manchester City, on the other hand, is coming off a tough schedule but has shown resilience. They recently beat Chelsea in the FA Cup semi-final and have a strong track record in the Premier League, going unbeaten in their last 17 matches. City's attack is in good form, having scored 13 goals in their last three league matches.Despite Brighton's decent home record this season, their recent form suggests they might struggle against City. City’s ability to score frequently, especially in away games, could prove too much for Brighton’s compromised defense. Kevin De Bruyne could be crucial for City. His excellent form, particularly in away games, makes him a likely candidate to impact the scoreline. His record of scoring or assisting every 43 minutes in away games this season highlights his importance to City's attacking play. Brighton's injury issues and recent poor form could see them struggle to hold off City's furious attacks. A bet on City to win and over 2.5 goals in the match could be a banker here
