Manchester City
Etihad Stadium will host a crucial Matchday 36 game that could influence the title race, as Manchester City face Brentford.
City unexpectedly dropped points in their last match after a tough trip to Liverpool, where they faced Everton. In fact, they were close to losing, only managing to recover from 3:1 late in the game. Everton exposed City’s defensive issues quite well, using fast counterattacks against their open structure.
Brentford, meanwhile, come into this game with confidence. In their last official match, they comfortably beat West Ham 3:0 at home. That result pushed them up to 7th place, giving them a realistic shot at European qualification.

Prediction for the Manchester City vs Brentford
The previous week raised some doubts about whether Pep Guardiola’s side truly deserve the title this season. The warning signs were already there in the Burnley game, but Everton highlighted the problems even more.
Still, I expect Manchester City to react. They should have enough time to recover and fix their mistakes during the week. At home, with title pressure, City usually deliver — so backing their win looks like the most logical option here.
