On Sunday, Manchester City will face Brentford at the Gtech Community Stadium, aiming to end their Premier League campaign on a high note. After a recent 1-1 draw against Brighton, the Sky Blues will be eager to elevate their performance, especially with two more crucial competitions awaiting them in the coming month.
Pep Guardiola will probably opt for a 3-2-4-1 formation and is expected to make a few changes to the starting XI for this contest. Ruben Dias, Aymeric Laporte, and Sergio Gomez are all pushing for a start this weekend.
3-2-4-1 Manchester City Predicted XI Vs Brentford
Defence
Stefan Ortega will continue in goal for Man City despite conceding a goal against Brighton last weekend. Ayemric Laporte will play alongside Kyle Walker to form a three-man backline with Ruben Dias as they look to keep Brentford at bay throughout the game.
Midfield
Ilkay Gundogan will continue alongside Rodri as they operate in the central areas, trying to dominate the possession in the middle of the park and shield the back three in defence.
Kevin De Bruyne and Phil Foden will operate just ahead of them as they look to engineer enough chances for Man City to win this contest. Riyad Mahrez will operate in the right-wing position while Sergio Gomez hopes to catch the eye on the opposite flank; both will have to provide support from the wide areas and cut into the penalty box to create chances in front of the goal.
Bernardo Silva and Kavin Phillips will have to be content with a spot on the bench and might come on to make an impact in the second half if needed.
Attack
Erling Haaland will lead the line on the pitch’s attacking third. The Norway international will continue his rich run of form and fancy his chances of adding more goals to his incredible tally.
