Pep Guardiolas side have fallen behind in the title race and are six points adrift of Arsenal ahead of their midweek match. A win against Brighton would put pressure on Mikel Artetas Gunners before their crucial match against reigning champions Liverpool on Thursday.
While City have suffered several defeats in their away matches this season, their home form has been exceptional. Eight wins from ten Premier League home games have been crucial to their title challenge, and they will be hoping for a ninth victory when Brighton visit the Etihad.
