【Expert Prediction】 🟢1-3🔵
Based on the available information, I predict a 1-3 victory for the away team, Manchester City.
While Brighton will be the underdogs, Manchester City's superior quality and their impressive record against the Seagulls suggest they have the edge in this Premier League encounter.
Manchester City will likely look to control possession and create scoring opportunities through their experienced attacking players. Brighton may struggle to contain the away side's offensive threat, and their recent poor form could also work against them.
An unexpected result or a more one-sided win for either side cannot be entirely ruled out, but a 1-3 victory for Manchester City is my prediction for this Premier League match.
This match has the potential to be a closely contested affair, with both teams eager to secure a positive result.
