A recent article from Sky Sports has revealed that Crystal Palace identified a weakness in City's play, which they looked to exploit through playing with a high intensity and running in behind during transitions. https://lnkd.in/g-jv_AAW We have taken this one step further and identified that Man City seem to be particularly vulnerable in the first 15 minutes of a game. No team has conceded more goals than they have in this time period (seven goals). Additionally, they also rank in the top 2 for 'xG per shot conceded' indicating they’re allowing high-quality chances - something we've flagged in a previous post. This weekend, they face their Manchester rivals in what is shaping up to be a very important game for both sides. Good news for Man City is that no team has scored fewer goals in the opening 15 minutes than Man United (1 goal). Will this be the right fixture at the right time for Guardiola? 🤔 #MUFC #MCFC #PremierLeague
