Manchester United

Manchester City's recent form presents a mixed picture with some concerning trends. Despite their typically high-scoring games, averaging 2.5 goals per match, their defensive record is worrying, conceding 2.33 goals per game. The team is currently on a streak of three consecutive losses in friendlies, which might raise questions about their pre-season preparation. Notably, all six recent matches have seen both teams score and have gone over 2.5 goals, indicating exciting but potentially vulnerable performances. The standout game is the 4-3 loss to Celtic, showcasing City's offensive prowess but also their defensive frailties. With no clean sheets in this period and a total goals average of 4.83 per game, City's matches have been high-scoring affairs, promising excitement for neutrals but potential concern for fans about the team's balance.
