Brighton – Manchester City: Preview and Highest Odds

Brighton will remain without their captain Lewis Dunk and top goalscorer Neal Maupay after the duo were both sent off in the recent defeat to Wolverhampton, but they will be available again for the final day trip to Arsenal. Steven Alzate could drop out of the side to make way for Adam Lallana, who returned from a recent knock to make an appearance from the substitutes’ bench against West Ham. The former Liverpool midfielder’s ability in tight areas could prove useful in terms of evading Man City’s high press. Joel Veltman and Davy Propper could miss out once more due to calf and ankle injuries respectively, while Solly March and Tariq Lamptey have been ruled out for the rest of the season due to knee and hamstring injuries respectively. Man City, meanwhile, will travel without Kevin De Bruyne due to a minor muscle injury, with the Belgian perhaps unlikely to be risked prior to the Champions League final. Sergio Aguero was not included in the squad which travelled to Newcastle, although it remains unclear whether that is due to an injury or related to his failed attempt at converting a Panenka penalty during the recent league defeat to Chelsea. Guardiola may look to ensure the likes of Ederson, John Stones, Ruben Dias, Fernandinho, Riyad Mahrez and Phil Foden are not rusty ahead of the final against Chelsea, so there is likely to be plenty of changes as usual.
