Manchester City v Huddersfield Betting Tips – Premier League 6th May 3.00pm

Manchester City have produced some scintillating displays since winning the league. They strolled past West Ham last weekend taking them one step closer to getting more Premier League records. This is all just bad news for the visiting Terriers who have just a three-point cushion between themselves and the relegation zone heading into the weekend.

Manchester City News and Form

It is Manchester City. They win matches. A lot of matches. Usually pretty easily. It’s hard to come up with anything at this point of the season about the Champions. They are still going full force at things, winning their last three league outings with twelve goals scored. With the title secured they are looking to break records in the top flight and they have already hit the 100 goals mark for the season as they routed West Ham last weekend. There should be more goals coming on the weekend. In the BetVictor correct score market, the shortest priced option is a Manchester City 3-0 at 5/1* (Betting Odds taken at 10:35 p.m. on May 1st, 2018) just to highlight how easy the bookmaker thinks this is going to be for the Champions. Manchester City have produced a W15 D1 L1 record at the Etihad this season, averaging 3.4 goals per game on home soil. The Citizens have scored in every home game this season and 67% of their home goals have come in the second half of matches. Manchester City have been 1-0 at half time in seven of their home games this term. 65% of their games at the Etihad have ended over 3.5 goals.

Huddersfield News and Form

This won’t be a game that Huddersfield are looking forward too. They are only three points clear of the drop zone and are not too likely to get anything out of this. They could be in bigger trouble after this match. Huddersfield are just W3 D3 L11 away from home this season as well so that’s not a good place to start from for this one. They have only taken the one point from their last three away from home, which came in a draw at Brighton in their last away game. There have only been the eleven away goals tallied by The Terriers this season and they have failed to score in 71% of their road games. Manchester City to win to nil is pretty much written all over this at 1/2 odds with BetVictor* (Betting Odds taken at 10:35 p.m. on May 1st, 2018). Huddersfield have conceded in each of their last fourteen away games in the top flight, but they have been level at half time in ten of their 17 games away from the John Smiths. If they get to half-time level they could count that as a success. 78% of the away goals they have conceded this season have been in the second half of matches.

Manchester City v Huddersfield Head to Head

There was a late winner for the Citizens when they visited Huddersfield back at the end of November, a winner which came from Raheem Sterling. That was the first ever Premier League game between Huddersfield and Man City. They met in the FA Cup last season with City winning a replay 5-1. Those cup games were the first between them since meeting in the Division 1 1999/200 season.

Manchester City v Huddersfield Predictions

Man City to win: The Citizens continue to make things look so easy and the way that they just carved West Ham apart last weekend was brilliant. They are hungry for more, have shown no signs of easing up and can bank another win to nil here at home.
