12/1 Manchester City vs Brentford Bet Builder Tips

Man City vs Brentford bet builder tips and match predictions for the final round of fixtures before the World Cup. Our 12/1 bet builder includes a player to be booked and returning superstar to score anytime in the match. Erling Haaland will be all the talk once again before a ball is even kicked as we await to see if he’s fit to start the match after coming on last weekend and scoring a last minute penalty to seal three points. It was a big win for City after Arsenal went to Chelsea and got three points. Brentford have only won once in their last nine matches and were knocked out of the League Cup by Gillingham in midweek. Thomas Frank has plenty of credits in the bank at the club but another run like this in January will drag them towards the drop zone, so any points here would be a massive bonus before our World Cup betting tips kick-off next weekend.

Bryan Mbuemo to be booked

📊ODDS – 12/1 with bet365

Manchester City half time/full time

Manchester City are only being kept off the top of the table by Arsenal. The champions have won 10 of their opening 13 fixtures and are unbeaten in their last six games in all competitions. Of their 10 Premier League victories this season, they have been leading at both half-time and full-time in seven of them. I think they’ll repeat that in this fixture against a Brentford side who haven’t won in their last five matches in all competitions, and exited the EFL Cup after a defeat to Gillingham during the week. I expect this one to land comfortably.

Erling Braut Haaland to score

Following a brief spell out the team due to injury, Erling Haaland is back firing for Manchester City following his substitute appearance against Fulham in which he scored the winner with a penalty in the 95^th minute. I expect him to be back in the starting line-up for this one, despite Julian Alvarez hitting form in his absence. Haaland has scored 18 Premier League goals already this season and averages 1.50 goals per game. He will get plenty of chances against this Brentford side, who have conceded 24 goals this season, and I expect him to take at least one of them.

Bryan Mbuemo to be booked

An attacker to be booked against Manchester City? You may think that is a strange selection, but I think Bryan Mbuemo will get frustrated through lack of opportunity and possession in this one, which may lead him make a couple of fouls as he tries to win the ball high up the pitch. Mbuemo has played every game for the Bees this season and has been booked twice, both coming in his last two matches, and I won’t be surprised to see him carded again in this one.
