Manchester City in the 2025/2026 Premier League
Manchester City’s campaign has been one of strong consistency peppered with occasional hiccups, securing 78 points from 38 matches to finish second. Their record of 23 wins, 9 draws, and 6 losses highlights a team that dropped more points through stalemates than defeats, with draws nearly matching half the number of losses.
Home form has been particularly impressive, boasting 14 wins out of 19 games and conceding only 14 goals on their own turf. Away from home, City have still managed a solid 9 victories but have been more vulnerable defensively, allowing 21 goals. Despite the lack of a notable winning streak, their ability to limit defeats to just six overall illustrates a balanced and resilient approach throughout the season.

Manchester City: Home Comforts vs. Away Adventures
Manchester City’s 2025/2026 Premier League campaign reveals a clear home advantage. They’ve netted a hearty 45 goals at the Etihad compared to 32 on the road, showing their attacking zest is best savoured with home comforts. Defensively, they’ve been rock-solid at home, conceding just 14 goals and keeping nine clean sheets, whereas away from home, the backline has been a bit more porous with 21 goals conceded and seven clean sheets.
The slightly bumpier away record with four losses compared to just two at home highlights the challenge of replicating their dominant form on unfamiliar turf. Still, with a total of 16 clean sheets, Manchester City’s defensive resilience remains a key pillar in their push for honours this season.
Fipster's Record on Manchester City
Fipster’s record on Manchester City this 2025/2026 campaign shows a cautious start, with 3 ticks and 4 misses from 7 scored fixtures. Not quite a star-studded performance, but the model is getting its feet under the table before aiming for the Premier League summit.
With 23 wins and a strong goal difference of +42, City’s form provides a solid foundation for Fipster to improve its prediction accuracy as the season progresses.
