They are scoring 2.71 goals a game, which ranks 2nd of 20 in the Premier League against a divisional average of 1.45.
At the other end they concede 1.00 a game — 4th best in the division, where the average side ships 1.44.
Home and away form is close to identical (3.00 points per game at home, 3.00 on the road), which is unusual and makes them harder to fade in either fixture.
Overall that is 21 points from 7 matches, 1st in the table and a 91st percentile profile against the rest of the division.
Manchester City grade out elite for consistency and strong for defence. That shape — a side whose consistency carries them and whose defence is the department with the least margin over the rest of the division — is why the engine prices their fixtures the way it does: a projected margin that tracks the goal difference rather than the reputation.

Every prediction on this club was published before kick-off and graded against the final score afterwards. Nothing has been removed, including the misses — the strip above shows them alongside the hits. We are not publishing a hit-rate percentage for Manchester City yet: 25 graded picks is too small a sample for one to mean anything, and a precise-looking figure off a sample this size would be misleading rather than transparent. The site-wide accuracy record, which pools every league, is the number worth reading until this one catches up.
Manchester City are covered by the 8th Day Engine, which publishes a projected scoreline and a win probability for every Premier League fixture before kick-off.
They currently sit 1st in the Premier League on 21 points from 7 matches, with 19 scored and 7 conceded for a goal difference of +12.
The engine grades them A+ overall — a 91st percentile side across attack, defence, consistency, momentum and both home and away form, measured against every other club in the division rather than against reputation.
We hold 25 graded predictions on Manchester City so far, 16 of which called the right result. That is too small a sample to quote a hit rate from, so we do not quote one; every pick is listed above, misses included.
Manchester City appear across 4 competitions in our data, including Premier League, UEFA Champions League and FA Cup, and every fixture in each of them is modelled the same way.
Predictions on this page are modelled estimates published for transparency, not betting advice.
Ratings on this page are percentiles against the other clubs in the Premier League, recomputed from the current league table every time it refreshes. Records, goals and home/away splits are the complete league figures; anything labelled “graded” covers only the matches we published a prediction on.
