Key factors

What will decide this match?

Home advantage first, then expected goals and the factor with the most influence on this match.

  1. Home advantage

    Edge: Even

    Home support is worth about a fifth of a goal to Brentford. That narrows the gap but does not cancel Man City's extra quality.

  2. Expected goals

    Edge: Goals

    3.0 expected goals is above the league average, and over 2.5 goals lands 58% of the time in our simulations.

  3. Quality gap

    Edge: Man City

    Man City rate clearly higher and the draw is only 20%. If they score first, the match should go their way.

Team set-up

How will the two teams line up?

Confirmed line-ups are published about an hour before kick-off.

Home

Brentford

Brentford are a practical mid-table side: solid without the ball at Gtech Community Stadium, but lacking the creativity to run a game.

Away

Manchester City

Man City have a squad deep enough to challenge for the title. They squeeze opponents on their trip to Gtech Community Stadium, so Brentford will need a disciplined low block to stay in the game.

Risk radar

What could change the prediction?

The news that would move our numbers before kick-off.

  • If Man City name a weakened XI

    Rotation or a missing key player would cut several points from their win chance. Line-ups are out an hour before kick-off.

  • If Brentford score first

    The favourite has to chase the game, and both the draw and the upset become much more likely.

  • If a red card comes in the first hour

    Going down to ten men changes the expected-goals picture completely, whichever side it hits.

Preview
