Match forecast
The hosts seem to be losing their momentum in the hunt for the Premier League title, having won only four of their last 15 competitive games. Pep is under pressure to start producing results like he used to when he joined the Etihad Stadium outfit over the summer. And the bad thing is – the yellow army could become the first victim of the Spaniard’s ‘bounce-back’ plan.

Additionally, the hornets have a poor away form so far this season - they have won only one of their last five games and this is something that could give the hosts the much-needed confidence to take all the points here. The absence of key forward Sergio Aguero should not affect City’s ability to take all the three points that much as they still have the likes of Kelechi Iheanacho, Nolito and Raheem Sterling to rely on at the frontline.
