Top Stories Tamfitronics

Manchester City will try to pull out of what has come to feel like their traditional autumn downturn when they visit Brighton on Saturday.

Bournemouth handed City their first Premier League loss since last December — a run spanning 32 games — when they claimed a deserved 2-1 triumph at the Vitality Stadium last weekend.

However, that result was sandwiched by a 2-1 defeat to Tottenham in the Carabao Cup and a chastening 4-1 loss at Sporting CP in the UEFA Champions League.

City’s slump has coincided with a stacked injury list that Pep Guardiola continues to manage, but he could welcome back some familiar faces against the Seagulls, who return to action following back-to-back cup and league losses to Liverpool.

Jack Grealishhas not featured since an injury in training in the aftermath of City’s 2-1 win at Wolves on October 20. Guardiola said he expected his record signing to be out until after the November international break but Grealish was called up by interim England boss Lee Carsley on Thursday for the forthcoming UEFA Nations League matches against Greece and the Republic of Ireland.

Carsley told reporters Grealish had returned to training this week and Guardiola might gamble on including the left-winger and key playmakerKevin De Bruyneas City pursue a change of fortunes.

Rodri‘s ACL absence is being keenly felt in a porous midfield but Guardiola’s biggest problems arguably come in defence, whereNathan Akeis the latest absentee alongsideRuben DiasandJohn Stonesalready sidelined. CaptainKyle Walkershould return after a week’s training to build fitness following a knee complaint.
