Manchester City - Brentford betting tips and odds

Kickoff starts at 13:30 on 12/11/2022 played @ Etihad Stadium refereed by Peter Bankes

This match itself isn’t likely to be much of a contest. The hosts are an overwhelmingly stronger team, and most bookmakers and experts agree that Brentford don’t stand much of a chance.

With a matchup like this, it seems like we already know the outcome. The Bees stand little chance of achieving anything except an appearance. Most bookies price an away win for this match at 24.00, marking an insurmountable difference.

Manchester City are coming on the back of a surprisingly close home game in the previous round of the Premier League. Top bookmakers online offered 1.20 odds for them winning, but they had issues gaining the upper hand in the first half. Still, they scored in time to secure a 2:1 win, adding another 3 points to the tally.

The Bees played at Nottingham Forest in the previous round, and top online bookies gave them odds of 2.90 to win. After a deadlock that couldn’t be broken for most of the game, the final result was a 2:2 draw.

The Citizens have managed to bag 6 goals in the last three showdowns, and the supporters at Etihad Stadium are expecting a lot of action this time around.

Brentford’s recent track record shows a very concerning amount of concessions – 7 of them in their previous 3 matches, to be exact. While it’s obvious their defence has a lot of problems, Over markets might be a good option for this match.

The hosts have their eyes set on victory. They’re 2 points behind the best-placed team with plenty of time to make up the difference – and a win here seems like a great step towards that end.

With just 16_TO_SAFE_ZONE points between them and the relegation zone and a clash with City ahead of them, Brentford’s prospects this season seem grim going into round 16. Surviving in the Premier League is likely their only goal moving forward.

The recent history of this matchup reveals a good part of why the hosts are considered the favourites. A quick look at the stats shows a decisive victory over Brentford. The most recent clash between the two squads is from last season, though.

Despite the risks involved, the strongest prediction in terms of value is an HT/FT bet that the hosts will take lead in the second half. It’s as risky as you might expect, though the 4.60 odds offer a decent return.
