Defending Premier League champions Manchester City will look to make the best of their game in hand when they take on Brighton at the Amex on Thursday.

The Citizens were knocked out of the Champions League by Real Madrid but progressed to the FA Cup final with a 1-0 win over Chelsea last weekend.
Whereas, Roberto De Zerbi's Seagulls had a 12-day break after a 1-1 league draw at Burnley.
