Preview + Form

City off a win and the Saints off a loss, this one has the makings of a trap game. So, given what happened in the League Cup, City can not afford to look past this match.

A win and some help Sunday and City could be a game out of first place. They need to handle business here and with a low block surely deployed by S’ampton it will make the match that much more difficult.

Expect Haaland to play a crucial role. Let’s hope for a win.

Which team will come out in front?
