Welcome to the live coverage of the English Premier League 2025-26 Matchweek 7 fixture between Brentford and Manchester City at the Gtech Community Stadium on Sunday, October 5, 2025. After a poor start to the season, Man City have steadied their course with a six-match unbeaten run across all competitions. However, Pep Guardiola’s side were held to a 2-2 draw by Monaco in the UEFA Champions League, and will be eager to return to winning ways. Meanwhile, Brentford ended their four-match winless run with a 3-1 thumping of Manchester United. They will look to continue their impressive run of late against the 10-time league champions.

LIVE UPDATES

Brentford Vs Man City LIVE Score, Premier League: 48' BRE 0-1 MCI

The best chance of the game for Brentford, and it comes from a quick conterattacking move from the Bees. After half-hearted shouts of penalty on the other end, the hosts clear, and Gvardiol misjudges the bounce of the ball which falls to Thiago. The Brazilian runs with the ball, but Donnarumma makes himself big and saves the resulting shot with... his face!

Brentford Vs Man City LIVE Score, Premier League: Second Half Starts! | BRE 0-1 MCI

The referee blows his whistle, and the second half is underway at the Getch Community Stadium. No half-time changes for either side as far as I can see.

Kayode is on the attack immediately, but the move fizzles out quickly. Still, much more positive for Brentford.

Brentford Vs Man City LIVE Score, Premier League: Half Time! | BRE 0-1 MCI

Darren Englnad blows the half-time whistle, and Man City are one goal ahead at half-time. Brentford, despite going a goal down early on, will be satisfied after preventing any more damage, despite the complete domination of the ball by the Mancunians.

Brentford Vs Man City LIVE Score, Premier League: 45' BRE 0-1 MCI

The fourth official holds up his board and indicates a minimum of two minutes to be added on at the end of the first half. Guardiola will be desperately hoping that his side can add one more goal before the break, considering their utter dominance in the first half.

Brentford Vs Man City LIVE Score, Premier League: 39' BRE 0-1 MCI

Man City have their best chance since the goal as Reijnders finds himself at the end of a very good cross. The Dutchman hits a sweet strike goalwards, but Kelleher is up to the task, making an instinctive stop to keep the scoreline manageable for the hosts.

Brentford Vs Man City LIVE Score, Premier League: 30' BRE 0-1 MCI

Despite the loss of Rodri, Manchester City have continued their stranglehold on this match. Brentford are yet to have a shot away with half-an-hour of football played, and almost conceded another as Bobb almost played the perfect pass inside the box to Foden.

Brentford Vs Man City LIVE Score, Premier League: 22' BRE 0-1 MCI

A massive blow for Man City, as Rodri goes down in pain, and his facial expression is not positive. Seems like his evening is over, and Guardiola is forced to bring on Nico Gonzalez in his place. With the visitors looking ever threatening in the moments before, will Brentford use this to their advantage?

Brentford Vs Man City LIVE Score, Premier League: Haaland SCORES! | 9' BRE 0-1 MCI

Haaland scoring is just inevitable at this point, considering his form of late. A decent ball from Gvardiol bounced favourably for Haaland, and he used his strength to hold off two Brentford defenders before finishing coolly to find the far corner.

Brentford Vs Man City LIVE Score, Premier League: 5' BRE 0-0 MCI

Brentford have overloaded the midfield, trying to cut off any service to Haaland in the early stages. Kayode was too strong in his tackle and gave away a foul, but for now, City have been forced to go wide in search of spaces to work with.

Brentford Vs Man City LIVE Score, Premier League: Kickoff! | BRE 0-0 MCI

Both sets of players are out on the pitch, and referee Darren England blows his whistle to get the match underway at the Gtech Community Stadium. The fans are in full force tonight, and the Bees will look to upset City after a terrific performance against United last time out. Stay tuned!
