Manchester City – Brighton Tip Premier League, Matchday 21 on Wednesday, 07/01/26 at 20:30 CET
Yes, Manchester City have won eight of their last ten games and have also collected two draws. However, the Skyblues have not been really convincing recently.
Especially offensively, Pep Guardiola’s team could not shine around the turn of the year. City have scored a total of only three goals in the last three games and most recently had to cope with a setback in the fight for the top of the table with the 1-1 draw against FC Chelsea.
Accordingly, in my Manchester City Brighton tip, I don’t assume that the favorite will come to a real victory on the 21st Premier League matchday. “Manchester City under 2.5 goals” at odds around 1.70 at Merkur Bets is, in my opinion, a football bet with great value.
Manchester City vs Brighton AI Predictions:
When Erling Haaland and Co. pay their respects, our AI model doesn’t have to be asked for long and serves you three additional tip alternatives in its very own Manchester City Brighton AI prediction.
Since City recently had to settle for a draw twice in a row, the digital brain has an eye on the “Double Chance X2”. On the one hand, the odds of about 3.00 are excellent. On the other hand, City have won eight of their first ten home games. So it doesn’t work without the courage to take risks.
Predicted chance of winning:
| Win Man City |

Win Brighton |
| 70% |

And you should also take a close look at the second tip. The classic “Both teams to score” at odds of about 1.50 at first glance is offered by German bookmakers. However, it is also true that the Skyblues have conceded a total of only two goals in the last six games.
The best AI tip from my point of view is the bet “Under 3.5 goals”. The odds of 1.75 can easily be played as a single bet. And for the back of the mind: In the last eight City games, the tip would have gone through.
