Premier League leaders Man City take on surprise Champions League candidates Brighton for the second time this week as the two clash at the Etihad on Saturday.
The two sides met on Wednesday in the fourth round of the League Cup, where they played to a thrilling 2-2 draw, with City advancing on a penalty shootout. Brighton twice took the lead, but City twice pulled back level, once in each half. Lewis Dunk saw his penalty saved to see City through and Brighton out.
While City hold the top spot in the English league standings, Brighton have also been extremely impressive in league play this season. The third-placed Seagulls have won five of their eight games thus far, with a league-best 23 goals scored and +16 goal differential.
