Manchester City vs Sunderland Moneyline Prediction
- Moneyline Pick: Manchester City to win
- Odds: -385 (Tonybet)
Manchester City and Sunderland last faced each other in 2017, while the Black Cats’ most recent victory against the Citizens dates back to 2013. Although defence remains an issue for Pep Guardiola’s men (as seen in their 5-4 win against Fulham), they’re expected to win at the Etihad against the newly promoted side.
Sunderland have performed well as they currently sit sixth, but it’s unlikely they’ll be able to neutralize Man City’s attack.
Manchester City vs Sunderland Player Prop
- Prop Bet: Phil Foden to score
- Odds: +150 (Tonybet)
Erling Haaland has been on the lips of all the fans for his impressive goalscoring record (15 in the league). Yet there’s another player who has been just as impressive in recent weeks: Phil Foden.
The Englishman scored a brace against Fulham and Leeds United, back-to-back. While not the most consistent, his performance when in form makes him one of the most important players in the squad.
Sunderland’s defence is far from the best, and if anything, they’ll struggle to contain the Englishman. He’s the creative spark that Guardiola needs when his team fail to dominate possession, as was the case against Fulham.

- SGP: Manchester City to win + Phil Foden to score + over 2.5 goals
- Odds: +200 (Tonybet)
Manchester City fare well against attacking teams, which fits the description of Sunderland. In their last five matches, the Black Cats haven’t kept a single clean sheet, and have drawn with Everton and Arsenal. Even the victory against Bournemouth (3-2) descended into chaos after the squad were 0-2 down.
With both sides looking to storm their opponents’ final third, chances are that both will score. And given Phil Foden’s form, he won’t remain silent in front of the net.
Manchester City vs Sunderland Team News
Manchester City Team News
Manchester City defeated Fulham 5-4 despite leading 5-1 by the 54th minute. However, their lack of attention afterward led to goals from Iwobi Chukwueze, to the point where Fulham almost completed a comeback.
The nine-goal thriller came just after their 3-2 victory over Leeds, therefore raising valid concerns about the backline. Both full-backs struggled when tracking their players, while Ruben Dias’s lack of mobility continued to punish the team in transitions. Little blame can be put on goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma, given that his shot-stopping technique has few flaws.

The Citizens have also lost to Leverkusen in the Champions League (0-2), though this was understandable given that Guardiola rotated his squad. Players who rarely feature, like Ait Nouri and Omar Marmoush, struggled to make an impact, reducing their chances of featuring again in the near future.
Man City have been warned: though they remain second in the Premier League, Guardiola will need to find a solution when it comes to conceded goals. In the Champions League, his club sit ninth and need to win their next match to maximise their chances of avoiding play-offs.
Mateo Kovačić and Rodri remain sidelined due to injuries.
Sunderland Team News
Sunderland have been one of the best performers among the recently promoted sides, as they currently sit sixth in the Premier League. The team combine a mix of experienced players like Granit Xhaka and hidden talents like Enzo Le Fée.
Their inconsistency can be attributed to their limited Premier League experience. Though Xhaka is one of the most mature players in the squad, the same can’t be said about others.
The backline is often nervy and struggles under pressure, while the attack is capable of producing both the best and the worst. Against Bournemouth, they conceded due to individual mistakes but made up for it thanks to Brian Brobbey’s brilliance.
