Pep Guardiola has plenty to ponder following three defeats in a row for Manchester City.

Liverpool and Manchester City occupy the top two spots in the Premier League table, but the pair could hardly be in more contrasting form currently.

The Reds are flying high as they host Aston Villa in the late kick-off, while the Citizens are struggling following three defeats in a row and they visit Brighton in the earlier televised clash.

Brighton v Manchester City (Saturday, 5.30pm)

Bet 1: Brighton or draw double chance

Manchester City look a shadow of their former selves without Rodri and Brighton, who have impressed this season and should arguably be higher up the table than they are, can deny them victory once more.

They have beaten Tottenham, Manchester United and Newcastle this term and are fancied to at least avoid defeat here.

Bet 2: Kaoru Mitoma to score or assist

Kaoru Mitoma has a goal and two assists so far this season and could add to that tally against a Citizens defence that has leaked eight goals in their last three matches in all competitions.

Bet 3: Georginio Rutter to have two or more shots

Georginio Rutter is averaging 3.68 shots per 90 minutes in the Premier League following his arrival from Leeds United this term and is fancied to have two or more in this clash.

Forward Mo Salah has been back to his sparkling best so far this season for Liverpool.

Liverpool v Aston Villa (Saturday, 8pm)

Bet 1: Both teams to score

Both teams have found the net in Liverpool’s last four domestic matches and they can continue that trend against an Aston Villa side that are dynamic going forward.

Bet 2: Liverpool to win

Liverpool have a rock-solid record against these opponents, winning six and drawing two of the last eight meetings between the pair and they can take advantage of an Aston Villa side that look stretched by their Champions League exploits.

Bet 3: Mo Salah to score the first goal

Mo Salah has been back to his best this season, netting nine times in all competitions and he looks like a solid bet to open the scoring for the Reds.
