January 2026: Honours even at the Etihad
In the most recent meeting at the Etihad, City and Brighton shared the points in a 1-1 draw. A much-changed City side took the lead through Erling Haaland, who converted a first-half penalty for the 150th goal of his City career, but Brighton hit back after the hour through Kaoru Mitoma's low finish. Haaland was denied a late winner by a superb save from Brighton goalkeeper Bart Verbruggen, with both sides settling for a point.
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.
Manchester City's 2025-26 season
Manchester City endured a trophy-less 2024-25 campaign - a rare occurrence under Pep Guardiola - and responded with significant squad changes in summer 2025, with Kevin De Bruyne departing for Napoli, Kyle Walker joining Burnley, and Ederson moving to Fenerbahçe.
New signings included Tijjani Reijnders from AC Milan (£46.3m), Rayan Cherki from Lyon, Rayan Aït-Nouri from Wolves, and goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma from PSG, with Bernardo Silva named club captain following Walker's departure. City recovered from an inconsistent start to finish the 2025-26 season as Premier League runners-up and completed a domestic cup double, winning both the EFL Cup and the FA Cup. The campaign proved to be Pep Guardiola's last after a transformative decade, with Enzo Maresca appointed as his successor.
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), he guided them to another eighth-place finish in 2025-26, qualifying for the Conference League.
Key summer 2025 signings included 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 again identified quality replacements.
