August 2025: Brighton's stunning comeback

Brighton produced a remarkable comeback to defeat Manchester City 2-1 at the Amex Stadium, handing Pep Guardiola's side their second consecutive Premier League defeat. Erling Haaland opened the scoring in the 34th minute - his 88th Premier League goal on his 100th appearance in the competition. However, a quadruple substitution by Brighton manager Fabian Hürzeler just after the hour mark transformed the game.

James Milner, aged 39 years and 239 days, became the second-oldest goalscorer in Premier League history when he converted a 67th-minute penalty after Matheus Nunes' handball. Then in the 89th minute, Brajan Gruda raced clear onto Kaoru Mitoma's through-ball and coolly rounded goalkeeper James Trafford to secure a memorable victory for the Seagulls.

This was City's first time losing two of their opening three Premier League matches since the 2004-05 season. It also ended Rodri's remarkable 49-game unbeaten streak in Premier League starts - his first such loss since February 2023.

Key players to watch

Manchester City's star players

Erling Haaland: The Norwegian striker continues to break records, having scored 88 Premier League goals in just 100 appearances - a remarkable strike rate.

Phil Foden: The England international has been in excellent form, with nine goal involvements in seven appearances since November 2025.

Rayan Cherki: The French playmaker signed from Lyon has impressed with his dribbling and creativity, highlighted by his sensational rabona assist against Sunderland.

Rodri: The Spanish midfielder returned from his ACL injury to restore balance and tempo to City's midfield, widely regarded as one of Europe's best holding midfielders.

Brighton's key players

Kaoru Mitoma: The Japanese winger is a constant threat with his pace and trickery, providing the assist for Gruda's winner against City in August.

Carlos Baleba: The Cameroonian midfielder has been a key figure in Brighton's engine room, helping the team retain possession and control games.

Brajan Gruda: The German midfielder scored the dramatic late winner against City and has shown his quality with crucial goals and assists.

James Milner: At 39, the veteran midfielder brings invaluable experience and proved his worth with that penalty conversion against his former club.

Manchester City's 2025-26 season

Manchester City are seeking redemption after a trophy-less 2024-25 campaign - a rare occurrence under Pep Guardiola. The club underwent significant squad changes in summer 2025, with Kevin De Bruyne departing for Napoli, Kyle Walker joining Burnley, and Ederson moving to Fenerbahçe.

New signings include Tijjani Reijnders from AC Milan (£46.3m), Rayan Cherki from Lyon, Rayan Aït-Nouri from Wolves, and goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma from PSG. Bernardo Silva has been named as the new club captain following Walker's departure.

Despite an inconsistent start featuring consecutive defeats to Tottenham and Brighton, City have recovered strongly and sit in second place, challenging Arsenal for the title.

Brighton's 2025-26 season

Brighton continue to punch above their weight under Fabian Hürzeler, the youngest permanent manager in Premier League history at just 32 years old. After finishing eighth in his debut season (2024-25), Hürzeler has set his sights on a top-five finish.

Key summer signings include Tom Watson (£10m from Sunderland - the hero of their play-off final), Olivier Boscagli (free from PSV), Diego Coppola (£9m from Verona), and Maxim De Cuyper (£17.3m from Club Brugge). The departure of João Pedro to Chelsea was a blow, but Brighton's renowned recruitment network has again identified quality replacements.

Venue: Etihad Stadium
