Flawless champions welcome high-flying Brentford to the Etihad

Manchester City host Brentford as the Premier League resumes following the international break.

City are top of the table and looking in great shape after three successive victories.

And star striker Erling Haaland has been at his imperious best with seven goals including two hat-tricks already this season.

Brentford are going well themselves though, brushing off Ivan Toney’s departure with two wins from their first three games.

The Bees beat Crystal Palace 2-1 to get their campaign off to a strong start, then lost 2-0 at Liverpool but bounced back with a 3-1 win over Southampton.

Here’s everything you need to know about the game.

Date, kick-off time and venue
