Highlights.

Manchester City have won back-to-back home games in the Premier League after conceding the opening goal for the first time since November 2019, while they are now unbeaten in their last eight matches (home and away) when conceding first in the competition (W7 D1).

Brentford have lost five of their seven Premier League meetings with Manchester City – the joint-most defeats they have suffered against an opponent in the competition (alongside Liverpool & Newcastle). Meanwhile, the Bees have lost more Premier League away games (14) than any other side currently in the competition since the start of last season.

Erling Haaland has scored nine goals across Manchester City’s first four league games this season – the most of any player in the opening four match days of a Premier League campaign (overtaking Wayne Rooney in 2011-12 – eight in first four).
