Is another Arsenal resurgence on the cards? They played well last night, but equally, Aston Villa were pretty poor it has to be said.

Either way, it was a solid scoreline and young Smith-Rowe got on the scoresheet for the third goal, thus capping off another great performance for him. One for the future for both Arsenal and England.

On to today, and the late kick-off tonight is...

@nathen007's Prediction

Brighton have got off to a storming start to the season and sit proudly up in 4th place on 15 points from their first 8 games just 2 points behind City who are one place higher in 3rd.

It will be interesting to see if Brighton can continue this amazing run of form and will doubtless go into tonight's game as underdogs despite it being at home.

The Seagulls have a couple of injury issues with Steven Alzate and the influential Danny Welbeck both long-term absentees but Graham Potter said in his presser that Adam Webster has an 'outisde chance' of being fit.
This is the problem with a small squad and there of course are no such issues at City with only Ferran Torres being a cause for concern for Pep Guardiola.

This will be Brighton's first game against one of the big boys and it will be interesting to see how they cope and will surely be a truer test of the European football potential.

City played scarily well midweek and were giving nothing away at the back. This could be the week that Brighton come back to earth with a bump!

Prediction: Brighton 0 : 4 Man City - First goal scorer: De Bruyne

Simply write the name of the FIRST GOALSCORER and the CORRECT SCORE as a comment. The competition closes 5 minutes before kick-off which is 17.30 BST

The Small Print

In the first goalscorer competition, own goals do not count. In the correct score competition, it's the score after 90mins. Extra time and penalties do not count and the pot for each competition will roll over if there is no winner. If more than one person chooses the same first goal scorer or correct score, the prize is shared, and everyone gets a little upvote! It seems I also need to add, one entry per person. Don't forget the new rule that only people with a rep of 50 or above are eligible to enter unless they have been approved. The bonus will be added to any winnings ONLY if Leeds United win and/or Man U lose and all pay-outs will never exceed 50% of post-pay-out. Other bonuses are paid out at my discretion.

And the winners were...

It was a pretty poor performance from you guys last night with very few of you fancying Arsenal! No one got either the correct score or the first goalscorer which was Partey so the pot rises up for today!

An HBI share each go out to @harpreetjanda and @jfang003 so well done to you guys!

Thanks to everyone for joining in the fun and I hope everyone has a great weekend!

Marching On Together
