I’m thinking out of these the potential slip ups are for

Arsenal:
Man Utd and Spurs away

City:
Brighton and Spurs away

Liverpool:
Everton, West Ham and Villa away

So would say City too
Well the first of these came true…

Everton beating Liverpool at home for the first time since 2010, a certain Spanish manager was their captain and scored that day...

Don't want them all to come true as that doesn't help us.

Let's face it, Spurs will beat us and lose 5-1 to City because that's what they're like.

Brighton have nothing to play for and an injury list longer than the pier, so not expecting much tonight.

And a manager/coach that's very likely already got his next club lined up for next season.......

Funny that the papers are focusing on Haaland being out for Citeh, I mean their squad is so paper thin and they've struggled with him being out (1 game v Chavs)

From BBC team news:
Brighton & Hove Albion defender Pervis Estupinan has been ruled out for the remainder of the season, while Julio Enciso will be assessed.

Adam Webster could feature but Evan Ferguson, Billy Gilmour, Tariq Lamptey and James Milner remain out.


Even when fit their record against city...
Brighton & Hove Albion have lost 11 of their 13 Premier League matches against Manchester City.

The Seagulls have won only six of their last 26 league games. (not sure why anyone wants to poach their manager)

Because he did a pretty good job with a largely injury free team last season, and up until the injury list started to mount before even mid season arrived, plus he does seem to have fallen out with club owner Tony Bloom.

Can't wait. Nothing to lose for us, and if we can do the seemingly impossible and knacker your season...what a beautiful thing. If we lose, that's expected.

One minute I’m looking forward to it, the next it’s the usual sickening feeling from visiting your place.

Regardless of league, form, goals etc
NLD is an FA Cup final. Long may it continue.
