Manchester City have scored 112 Premier League goals in 2021. The last calendar year in which an English top-flight side scored more was back in 1960, with Tottenham Hotspur netting 114 and Wolverhampton Wanderers 113 that year.

Brentford have won half of their league matches against reigning top-flight champions (W5 D3 L2), including two victories against Man City in the 1937/38 campaign.

Man City's Raheem Sterling has scored in each of his last four Premier League appearances, netting five goals in total. He has never scored in five consecutive matches in the competition.

When playing their final league match of a calendar year at home, Brentford have not lost since 2005, winning five and drawing three of their last eight such contests.
