STAR FOOTBALL PREVIEW Sat: Man City v Brentford

Manchester City will be hoping to keep their title hopes alive when they take on Europe-chasing Brentford on Saturday, writes JOE CITRONE.

After their dramatic 3-3 draw to Everton in midweek, Pep Guardiola’s side have lost major ground in the fight for the Premier League title, with Arsenal now back in the driving seat.

There is still plenty more football to be played, but if City are to end the season as champions, they surely can’t afford any more slip-ups.

Brentford, to their credit, despite losing key players and their manager in the summer, have been no pushover this season.

Keith Andrews’ side are hard to beat, but have probably drawn a few too many games – three of their last five have ended level. They did thump West Ham 3-0 last weekend, though, which means they will be coming into this game with confidence.

City have some incredible players, but gone are the days when they would regularly hammer teams 5 or 6-0. Guardiola’s men have had to edge out many of their recent wins, and that’s why I am appealed to a bet of the home side winning by just one goal at 14/5 with starsports.bet.
