Manchester City will take on Brentford in the Premier League at the Etihad Stadium on Tuesday. Pep Guardiola's team is currently four points behind league leaders Liverpool but can climb to be within a point of the Reds if they win this game in hand. Brentford are 14th in the standings, with 25 points from 24 games.
City's 11-match winning run was halted by Chelsea with a 1-1 draw in the last game. They will be extremely confident of adding another win to the bag to catch up to Liverpool. Brentford, on the other hand, have lost three out of their last four games and will be worried about how to tackle the in-form Cityzens.

Team news & squads
Manchester City team news
Pep Guardiola has confirmed that Jack Grealish and Josko Gvardiol remain unavailable for Tuesday's Premier League encounter at home against Brentford, but all other members of the City squad are fit and ready for selection.
Grealish sustained a muscular injury during last Tuesday's Champions League last 16 3-1 victory over FC Copenhagen.
Meanwhile, Gvardiol hasn't played since featuring in the 3-1 triumph at Brentford two weeks ago. He was absent from the matchday squad for both the Copenhagen trip and last Saturday's 1-1 draw against Chelsea due to an ankle problem.
Man City predicted XI: Ederson; Lewis, Dias, Stones, Ake; Rodri, Nunes; Silva, De Bruyne, Foden; Haaland.
| Position | Players |
|---|---|
| Goalkeepers: | Ortega, Carson, Ederson |
| Defenders: | Dias, Akanji, Ake, Stones, Gomez, Lewis, Walker |
| Midfielders: | Rodri, Nunes, Kovacic, Silva, De Bruyne, Doku, Foden, Bobb |
| Forwards: | Alvarez, Haaland |
Brentford team news
Brentford encountered no new injury setbacks during the game against Liverpool, a fixture in which they welcomed Frank Onyeka and Yoane Wissa back from Africa Cup of Nations duties.
However, defensive mainstay Ethan Pinnock was sidelined before kickoff due to an ankle issue. He will remain unavailable until after the March international break.
In addition to Pinnock, Rico Henry (knee), Josh Dasilva (knee), Kevin Schade (groin), Aaron Hickey (thigh), and Bryan Mbeumo (ankle) are also on the sidelines. Nonetheless, there's hope that Hickey and Schade could return before the end of the month.
Brentford predicted XI: Flekken; Ajer, Collins, Mee; Lewis-Potter, Janelt, Jensen, Norgaard, Reguilon; Toney, Wissa.
| Position | Players |
|---|---|
| Goalkeepers: | Flekken, Strakosha, Valdimarsson, Belcombe |
| Defenders: | Collins, Ajer, Zanka, Mee, Roerslev |
| Midfielders: | Janelt, Konak, Jensen, Baptiste, Trevitt, Yarmolyuk, Damsgaard |
