After the 0-1 defeat of Manchester United against West Bromwich Albion, the “Citizens” were also computationally impossible to catch up. Swansea City, however, is still in the middle of the relegation battle. The lead on the 18th place in the table is only five points. The venue for the upcoming match between the two clubs is Etihad Stadium. We have a tendency to play Handicap on Manchester City and receive highest odds of 1.42.

Manchester City:

Manchester United defeated England United West Bromwich Albion 1-0 on Sunday to overturn British Premiership last Sunday. The coach Pep Guardiola’s team is playing a great season and suffered only two defeats in the Premier League (3: 4 against Liverpool FC, 2: 3 against Manchester United). With 93 goals scored, Manchester City not only has the league’s most dangerous offensive, but with only 25 in a row, they also have the safest defensive of the top English league in their ranks. The demonstration of power of the “Citizens” is also reflected in the clarity of the victories. 19 times this season they won a game with at least two goals difference.

Although Manchester City are already champions, they want to improve their score in the remaining five games. They have already dropped out in the Champions League and the FA Cup and can concentrate fully on the remaining Premier League games. In addition, they want to celebrate the championship title with a victory in front of the local fans. Top scorer Sergio Agüero will be injured. Fernandinho is missing due to a suspension.

Swansea:

With 33 points Swansea City is in the middle of relegation battle. The team of coach Carlos Carvalhal currently has five points ahead of 18th place in the table. The remainder of the “Swans” shows that they still have to compete against strong clubs such as Manchester City and Chelsea FC, but also against rivalry for the league as Stoke City and Southampton FC. They have a total record of eight wins, nine draws and 16 defeats. The offensive, along with West Bromwich Albion and Huddersfield Town, is the most innocuous in the Premier League. Away, Swansea City was able to celebrate two wins this season.

Half of the defeats suffered by Swansea City this season were quite clear. In eight games they lost with at least two goals difference. It will be extremely difficult for the Swans to beat Manchester City. The important games in which they have to prevail, are the direct duels with Stoke City and Southampton FC. Coach Carlos Carvalhal will miss midfield player Leroy Fer and center-forward Wilfried Bony on Sunday night.


PREDICTION: Both teams to score / NO @ 1.50
