Ait-Nouri picked up a knee injury against Tottenham, but has been called up to Algeria for the September internationals and is fit to play. Josko Gvardiol and Savinho are also out, while Mateo Kovacic (calf) and Kalvin Phillips (Achilles tendon) are also out. The Trafford keeper is likely to start despite his mistake last week, while Erling Haaland is set to make his 100th Premier League appearance.

Brighton have no new injuries after the games against Everton and Oxford. However, Georginio Rutter remains doubtful due to a minor injury. The trio of Adam Webster, Solly March and Julio Enciso remain sidelined with knee injuries; Enciso's move to Strasbourg and then Chelsea also fell through due to fitness issues. Carlos Baleba, a transfer target for Man United, is certain to stay and is likely to start for Brighton.

Latest Brighton vs Man City football review

The "Tottenham curse" has yet to be broken by Man City, even though they had a perfect start to the season with a 4-0 victory over Wolverhampton in the opening round of the Premier League.

But when Tottenham travelled to the Etihad, Pep Guardiola's men collapsed. Brennan Johnson opened the scoring after a brilliant counter-attack, before goalkeeper James Trafford made a disastrous mistake that gifted Joao Palhinha his second. A first-half injury to new signing Rayan Ait-Nouri added to City's frustration, allowing Arsenal and Liverpool to quickly move three points clear. The defeat also ended City's 11-match unbeaten run in the Premier League.

However, Man City can be confident when visiting Brighton, as they are on a five-match unbeaten run away from home in the Premier League, keeping a clean sheet in all five. If they continue to keep a clean sheet, City will set a new record – keeping six consecutive away clean sheets in the Premier League for the first time. In fact, they have conceded just one goal in their last seven away games in the competition.

Meanwhile, Brighton suffered the first defeat at Everton’s new Hill Dickinson Stadium. Fabian Hurzeler’s side suffered a 2-0 defeat, with both goals assisted by Jack Grealish, a City loanee. Brighton had also drawn with Fulham in the opening round, leaving them with just one point from their first two games – their worst start to the season in 15 years, apart from 2017-18.

Brighton, however, bounced back with a 6-0 thrashing of Oxford United in the League Cup, with Stefanos Tzimas scoring twice. They also have fond memories of taking four points from six against Man City last season. If Hurzeler avoids defeat this time, he will become only the second manager in history to avoid defeat to Guardiola in his first three meetings, after Ronald Koeman.
