Man City vs Brentford Bet Builder Tips
Both Teams To Score, Over 10.5 Corners & Over 0.5 Assists For Bernardo Silva @ 12/1 Bet365.
Manchester City haven’t been quite as sturdy as Pep Guardiola would have liked to this point. Both teams have scored in two of their three league games and Chelsea squandered a couple of golden opportunities in the only exception. Over 10.5 corners also looks solid. This landed in both head-to-heads between City and Brentford last season with an average of 16 corners.
Bernardo Silva has recorded two assists for Manchester City thus far. He assisted Erling Haaland’s first goal in the 3-1 win over West Ham before the break. The Portuguese midfielder also assisted City’s in-form forward in the 2-0 win at Stamford Bridge.
