Peter Bankes will take charge of Manchester City versus Brentford on Saturday afternoon.

Manchester City face Brentford in their final match before the World Cup break, and are looking to make it three wins in a week at the Etihad Stadium.

After victories over Fulham and Chelsea, Pep Guardiola's side can move to the top of the Premier League table with a win over Thomas Frank's Brentford on Saturday.

Brentford are winless in their last four Premier League outings, while City have a formidable record at home, winning every game at the Etihad so far this season.

Erling Haaland's late penalty secured a vital 2-1 win against Fulham last weekend, after Joao Cancelo was sent off in the first-half.

Riyad Mahrez and Julian Alvarez both scored against Chelsea on Wednesday, as the Sky Blues set up a last 16 tie against Liverpool in the Carabao Cup.

Ahead of Saturday’s clash at the Etihad Stadium, the Premier League have announced the Match Officials for the match.
