Brighton vs Man City LIVE: Premier League score and updates from Amex Stadium as Haaland nets opener
Pep Guardiola’s men hope to move to the top of the table with a win against the Seagulls
Brighton host Manchester City in the Premier League hoping to put in a similar performance to their outing against Liverpool last weekend.
Although the Seagulls lost that match 2-1 they took the lead against Arne Slot’s side and made the current league leaders work hard for their victory and will hope to replicate that against Pep Guardiola’s reigning champions. Before the Liverpool game Brighton were on a three-match unbeaten run and will hope to capitalise on a weakened City side.
Guardiola’s men defeated Southampton 1-0 at the end of October but have lost their last three games. Tottenham defeated them in the Carabao Cup before Bournemouth won 2-1 in their last Premier League outing and Ruben Amorim’s Sporting CP hammered them 4-1 in the Champions League. Can they end that streak today?

The Brighton goal has been coming, they've had a number of chances after the break and City have not played well since the restart. Can either side get a second and nick all three points?

Another City change, as Savinho heads off and he's been replaced by De Bruyne, who makes his return to the side after a spell on the sidelines.
