Manchester City has allowed 9 goals in its last five league road contests. That included a 1-0 loss at Aston Villa and a wild 4-4 DRAW at 10th-ranked Chelsea. Brentford has netted 8 goals in its last four league home games. They come off a 3-2 loss at fourth-ranked Tottenham Hotspur but played well. They had had 12 interceptions to Tottenham's four, 14 clearances to seven, and won 10 aerial duels to one in that first half. Tottenham had just one shot on target before the break. Brentford has been a thorn in the side for Manchester City, too, winning the last two meetings, 1-0 and 2-1. Back Brentford on the moneyline.
