Dreams of a stunning treble turned to dust at Wembley on Sunday but Manchester City are still in pole position in the Premier League and they might just get the chance to avenge that FA Cup semi-final defeat in the Champions League final.
Pep Guardiola's side must now refocus on the league and the layers certainly expect City to bounce back and see off Brighton, although odds of 2/11 with Betfred won't tempt in many punters.
The Seagulls are a huge 16/1 to cause an upset but they have found some form recently, winning at both Arsenal and Spurs within the last ten days.
It is also worth remembering that Brighton are a completely different outfit on the road this season than they are at home, where they have won just three of their 16 games (quite remarkably). Contrast that to their away form, where they have only LOST three of their 16 games.
Graham Potter's side have already picked up points at Anfield and Stamford Bridge this season and his Brighton side head to the Etihad with a real spring in their step after the weekend win at Tottenham, who were limited to an xGF of just 0.62 on Saturday.
Brighton are the seventh-best Premier League side in terms of defensive numbers on the road this season, so don't expect City to run away with this.
Man City vs Brighton prediction
City may well get the job done here but this might not be as straightforward as many expect. Both teams to score (yes) is a tempting option at 6/4 but a better value play is backing the visitors on the handicap.
We can back Brighton with a goal start at 4/1, which means they will need to lose by two or more for us to lose the bet. If they lose by a single goal margin then we'll get our stake back and there is no damage done.
Recommended bet: Brighton +1 on the handicap at 4/1 with Betfred
