Brighton XI vs Manchester City – Predicted lineup and team news

Brighton travel to Manchester City this afternoon hoping to extend their impressive winning run.

The Seagulls have won six straight games in all competitions, a club record as a top-flight side. Brighton’s good form has carried Fabian Hurzeler’s side into the race for Champions League qualification and secured progress to the FA Cup quarter-finals.

With maiden silverware and Champions League football realistic aims for the run-in, it could be a dream debut season for the Premier League’s youngest-ever permanent manager. Currently seventh, a first-ever victory at the Etihad will see Brighton move above Manchester City and level on points with Chelsea in fourth.

City are aiming to bounce back from a 1-0 loss at Nottingham Forest. Callum Hudson-Odoi’s winner condemned the champions to a ninth league defeat of the season last weekend. It’s the joint-most the club have suffered in a season under Pep Guardiola.
