Manchester City are set to bolster their squad ahead of their upcoming Premier League clash against Brighton. The team will face off at the Etihad Stadium in today's match, marking their second encounter with the Brighton side in just a week. Manchester City emerged victorious in the first meeting, prevailing in a penalty shoot-out during the Carabao Cup fourth-round tie on Wednesday.
In a positive update, Manchester City's manager Enzo Maresca revealed that most of his players are available for today's game. This is a significant boost for City, who aim to climb the Premier League table. Only Antoine Semenyo will miss the match, as he is the sole player unavailable for today's game. After assessing Antoine Semenyo's condition, Maresca expressed that he is doing well and is recuperating from a recent injury.
City's star players such as Erling Haaland, Gianluigi Donnarumma, Josko Gvardiol, Elliot Anderson, and Ruben Dias were rested for the Carabao Cup tie. However, Matheus Nunes, who was absent due to injury, is now set to return to action at right-back. His presence will be greatly missed by Manchester City, as he is a crucial player in their playing style.
The absence of Antoine Semenyo leaves City in need of a strong performance to secure a win against Brighton, who have been performing strongly in the Premier League this season.
