Match Facts
Brentford did the Premier League double over Manchester City last season, beating them 2-1 away and 1-0 at home. The last team to win three in a row against the Citizens were Liverpool (4 between March 2015 and December 2016).
Man City boss Pep Guardiola has never lost three consecutive top-flight meetings with an opponent before, something Brentford could achieve in this match.
Man City have lost two of their last four Premier League away games against London sides (W1 D1), as many as they had in their previous 16 trips to the capital (W12 D2).
Having drawn each of their first three home league games this season, none of Brentford’s last eight at the Gtech Community Stadium have finished level (W4 L4). The Bees have kept just one clean sheet in 11 home league games this term (3-0 v Burnley), but have also only failed to score once so far (0-1 v Arsenal).
Manchester City have won their last three Premier League away games despite having trailed in each of them. Only Manchester United have ever won four consecutive away games despite falling behind in them all in the competition, doing so in six in a row between September and December 2020.
Brentford have dropped a league-high 23 points from winning positions in the Premier League this season – it’s as many such points as they’d lost in their previous two campaigns in the competition combined (8 in 2021-22, 15 last season).
Brentford haven’t kept a clean sheet in any of their last 11 Premier League games, losing eight of their last 10 in the competition (W2). They’ve conceded at least twice in each of their last five, last doing so in more consecutive league games between March and May 2007 (8).
Brentford striker Ivan Toney has scored in each of his last four Premier League home games. He last netted in five consecutive home league games between January and March 2020 with Peterborough United.
Despite playing just 199 minutes across six appearances in all competitions this season, Man City’s Kevin De Bruyne has been involved in five goals (1 goal, 4 assists), averaging a goal involvement every 40 minutes so far this term.
Erling Haaland has scored against 20 of the 21 sides he’s faced in the Premier League with the only exception being Brentford. Among players to face at least three teams, only Harry Kane has scored against every opponent he’s faced (32/32).
