Is Erling Haaland In A Goal Drought?
At first glance, Erling Haaland's achievement of scoring 11 goals in 10 Premier League matches this season seems remarkable. However, this impressive statistic doesn't reveal the whole picture, as the City forward has scored just once in his last six appearances in the league.
The Norwegian player seemed far from his best during City's 4-1 defeat to Sporting Lisbon in the Champions League earlier this week. He even missed a penalty during the match and has struggled with finishing in recent outings.
Given everything we've discussed, it wouldn't be surprising to see him net three goals today!

Another Injury For Man City?
JACK GAUGHAN AT THE AMEX
Brighton Team Update: Just One Change
Brighton manager Fabian Hurzeler must have been quite pleased with his team's play during their 2-1 loss to Liverpool last weekend, as he makes only one change for the upcoming match against Manchester City.
Former Manchester United forward Danny Welbeck will be eager to build on his impressive season by scoring against the rivals of his previous team. He'll also be energized by the comeback of Simon Adingra.

Man City Update: De Bruyne And Silva Benched
City's injury list is growing, and Guardiola has had to select a lineup that, in retrospect, might give Brighton some confidence going into today's match.
Kevin de Bruyne and Bernardo Silva are two of the most prominent players sitting on the bench, and Manuel Akanji has also been moved out of the starting lineup.
Considering all factors, it's still a formidable team with Erling Haaland spearheading their attack at the Amex.
Pep Guardiola's Record He Aims To Avoid Today
This is uncharted territory for Pep Guardiola as he leads his Manchester City team to the Amex Stadium following three straight losses.
The City manager has mostly attributed his team's recent poor performance to injuries (and they do have quite a few), but today Brighton has the chance to hand the Spaniard a fresh, disappointing milestone.
Guardiola has never experienced a four-match losing streak as a manager since he started his career at Barcelona, and he is focused on preventing that from happening today!
