Preview: Manchester City vs Brentford
After yet another interruption due to international football, it's back to business for Pep Guardiola and his troops as they get ready to take on Brentford on Saturday, September 14th. The Cityzens have made a fine start to their Premier League title defense, and come into this upcoming tie boasting a perfect record with three wins out of their first three Premier League ties.
Guardiola's side had no problems dispatching Chelsea, Ipwsich Town, and West Ham by score-lines of 2-0, 4-1, and 3-1 respectively. As expected, Erling Haaland was the star of the show, with the Norwegian already netting a whopping seven goals at this early part of the season. Indeed, he has scored all but two of his team's goals thus far, which includes back to back hat-tricks against Ipswich Town and West Ham - but he is reportedly in doubt due to a personal family matter.
Brentford, for their part, have had a solid start to the season. The visitors have won two of their last three games, and interestingly, just so happen to be the last team to beat Manchester City at the Etihad. That was back in November 2022, with Ivan Toney scoring a brace in a 2-1 result for the visitors, but he has now departed in a big money move to Saudi Arabia.
Overall, despite their impressive win about two years ago, Brentford do not have the best track record when it comes to playing Manchester City. Saturday's visiting side have won just two of their last nine visits to City's home ground across all comps, and are currently dealing with quite a few players out injured.
