Man City vs Brentford prediction and odds: City set for a routine Premier League victory at the Etihad Stadium

Checkout our 11/2 & 21/4 Man City vs Brentford predictions below

Manchester City have an opportunity to go 12 points clear at the summit of the Premier League against Brentford on Wednesday night and it will be a something of a surprise should Pep Guardiola's side fail to do exactly that.

City are 1/10 with Grosvenor Sport to complete a seasonal double over the Bees, who are are huge 24/1 to cause an Etihad upset and lift themselves up to mid table.

Brentford restricted Man City to an xG of just 0.8 in the reverse fixture, City's second-lowest Expected Goals total of the season so far, but the hosts weren't able to carve out many clear cut openings of their own, managing a poultry xG of just 0.3.

And Thomas Frank's side won't find it any easier to create big chances at the Etihad, where City have shipped just eight goals in 12 Premier League matches, three of which came in a single game.

The league leaders have lost just one of their last 18 matches across all competitions and the goals are flowing. No side has kept City out since Crystal Palace in October and the blue machine is purring on all fronts.

Brentford are hardly prolific on the road, scoring just 12 goals on their travels this term, and their prospects of breaking down this fearsome Manchester City rearguard are pretty slim, which is a firm pointer to how we should play this game from a punting perspective.

Man City vs Brentford prediction

Under normal circumstances the go-to wager here would be 'Man City to win to nil' but at 8/13 the price is tight enough.

Brentford have only conceded four goals once all season so let's split the 2-0 and 3-0 correct scorelines, which are 11/2 and 21/4 respectively with Grosvenor Sport.

Recommended bet: Back Man City to win 2-0 @ 11/2 and back Man City to win 3-0 @ 21/4
