THE PREDICTION
Man City are certainly enjoying the benefits of playing at home this season, particularly from a goal scoring perspective. Not only have Guardiola’s side won each of their three matches played in all competitions at the Etihad Stadium this season, they have also racked up a staggering 16 goals across those three fixtures, scoring a minimum of five goals per game. This certainly doesn’t bode well for Southampton, who themselves have conceded 13 goals over the course of their last three visits to Man City in the Premier League. When taking into account the attacking firepower and sheer depth in quality that the hosts have within their ranks going forward, it’s difficult to see any outcome other than a Man City win by at least two clear goals in this one.
