Brentford/Man City Pt.1

Haaland 1+ shot on goal/Man City TT o1.5/o2.5 (-145)

This bet could be a little confusing so I will break it down for you, we have Erling Haaland 1+ shot on goal, Manchester Cit team total over 1.5 goals and the whole match total over 2.5 goals. If Haaland scores a hattrick the bet hits lol.

Backing Haaland to put at least one shot on goal in his first start since the beginning of December, with De Bruyne in the lineup he has been a different player. KDB awareness and ability to set up scoring chances is a game changer. in the 23’-24’ Premier League season Haaland has had a shot on goal in 12 of the 16 games and every game but one came without Kevin De Bruyne and played only 23 minutes in the single game he actually played in. Expect these two to get an abundance of chances this afternoon.

Next, we will talk about the goals. Brentford has given up 14 goals in their L5 games and they shouldn’t get any breaks tomorrow with City scoring 2+ goals in each of their L7 games and a combined 18 goals during that stretch. Also, City has conceded at least one goal in 11 of the L12 games, let’s not expect Man City to do all the heavy lifting here Brentford will get some chances. 15 of Brentford’s games this season have gone over 2.5 goals and so have 9 of the L11. With the offensive lineup Pep just put out I don’t see how this isn’t a back-and-forth affair with Haaland, Silva, De Bruyne, Foden and Alvarez all starting up top for City leaving just Rodi in the midfield.

Lastly, Brentford has allowed 2+ goals in 7 of the L9 games. Predicting a 3-1 Man City win. GL.
