Brighton and Manchester City face off in a low-stakes match
Brighton and Hove Albion will take on Manchester City in a Premier League match with little at stake for either team. Brighton has made four changes to the team that won against Southampton, with Danny Welbeck, Billy Gilmour, Facundo Buonanotte, and Jan Paul van Hecke replacing Joel Veltman, Lewis Dunk, Alexis Mac Allister, and Evan Ferguson. Manchester City, on the other hand, has welcomed back all their big guns after resting them for the Chelsea game.
Low stakes but high potential for momentum
While Brighton needs one more point to confirm their participation in next year’s Europa League, they have a superior goal difference over Aston Villa, the only team that can still catch them. Manchester City has already secured the championship, and their minds are likely focused on their upcoming finals. However, momentum could prove priceless for the team going into those finals.
Two fine footballing sides will face off, unencumbered by jeopardy but still with an eye on a greater prize. Brighton could still pip Liverpool for fifth place, while Manchester City could use this match to build momentum for their upcoming finals. The match kicks off at 8 pm BST at the Amex.
