Our prediction for this Premier League match:
Saturday’s football game at Vicarage Road pits together Watford and Manchester City, the two teams with entirely different ambitions in the 2021/2022 season. The Hornets aim to make amends for back-to-back losses to Leicester and Chelsea, but they face yet another uphill task on Matchday 15. Influential winger Ismaila Sarr remains in the recovery room, and we predict that he is going to be sorely missed in Saturday’s clash.
The Citizens, on the other hand, recorded a hard-fought 2-1 win over Aston Villa in midweek. Pep Guardiola’s troops are eager to overtake Chelsea in top position, and even though Kevin De Bruyne remains on the sidelines, away win should be considered. All Kyle Walker, Ilkay Gundogan, and John Stones should be fit for the Vicarage Road showdown. In their last meeting at the venue Man City outclassed Watford 4-0.
Highlighted Player (Joao Pedro):
Joao Pedro played for Atletico Mineiro during his youth career and he made no less than 11 appearances for the club at senior level. The Brazilian footballer, who was born on 9 March, 1992 in Ipatinga, signed a deal with Palermo on 30 August, 2010 and he made his debut for the Sicilian outfit in the Serie A on 17 January, 2011.
He came as a substitute to replace Josip Ilicic in a 3-1 defeat to Cagliari. On 29 January, 2011 he joined Vitoria Guimaraes on loan and on 19 August he was loaned to Penarol of Uruguay. After ending his loan spell with the Uruguayan team, the Brazilian midfielder joined Santos and he played 10 games for the Brazilian team.
On 1 July he signed a contract with Estoril and he moved to Cagliari at the end of the season. Joao Pedro has 11 caps for Brazil U17 and he scored one goal for the national team.
Highlighted Team (Man City):
Manchester City are the lest famous of the two major clubs based in Manchester. The club was founded in 1880, but they have been struggling in the English Premier League in the past. Nonetheless, ever since the club was purchased by Abu Dhabi United Group in 2008, the Citizens have been playing an important role in the English top flight.
Manchester City won two Premier League trophies under Roberto Mancini and Manuel Pellegrini (2011/2012 and 2013/2014), but both managers eventually paid the price for some disappointing results. Man City play their home games at the Etihad Stadium and the stadium capacity is 55,097.
Manchester United are regarded as Manchester City’s biggest rivals and the likes of Kun Aguero, Carlos Tevez, Shaun Wright-Phillips, Uwe Rosler, Yaya Toure, Sylvain Distin are some of the most remarkable players that played for the Etihad Stadium outfit. Manchester City have won four Premier League titles and five FA Cup trophies and it has to be noted that they made it to the Champions League semis in the 2015/2016 season.
