Manchester City had a record breaking end of season score of 137 goals from last season and they will not be beating it this season.

They have still had two blank score sheet’s and their highest score was seven goals against Norwich in the league.
This season they had no midweek game once again and they only picked up one goal against Chelsea at the weekend. So City are still on a total of 55 goals this weekend. But they have had a total of four blank score sheet after twenty-seven games played. They are now 42 goals behind last seasons record run. They are home to Hull at the Weekend.
