Manchester City vs Burnley Prediction
Manchester City have struggled in the league this season. Despite spending big on the likes of Ruben Dias and Nathan Ake, Pep Guardiola's side have failed to impress on a consistent basis. Returning stars might prove to be crucial as Manchester City try to establish a consistent run of form.
Burnley, on the other hand, did not enjoy the best of transfer windows. Their win against Crystal Palace was their first league victory of the season. Manager Sean Dyche will hope that the victory acts as a catalyst for improved performances from his side.
Manchester City will be the favorites to win this game.
