Manchester City’s offensive unit, under Pep Guardiola’s guidance, has leaned on Erling Haaland, their main scorer, and Phil Foden, as they continue to drive the team’s attacking efforts forward.

Adding further support are Jeremy Doku, Tijjani Reijnders and Josko Gvardiol, who have combined to deliver key goals and assists for the team.

Meanwhile, Brighton’s top finisher Danny Welbeck and Diego Gomez have played important roles in ensuring their attack remains effective. Welbeck leads Brighton’s scoring charts in Premier League this season with seven goals, as Rutter continues to lead their creative efforts in the tournament with three assists.
