Brennan Johnson is a player that plays in streaks, he often finds his best form through a series of successive performances before dropping off from those levels slightly. He’s coming off the back of a brace against Ipswich in a game in which he had three attempts at goal and it’s possible that Johnson is at the beginning of one of those streaks of positive form.

Johnson has had 48 shots across his 23 Premier League appearances this season (2.72 per 90) resulting in nine goals this campaign for the 23 year old winger. He had two shot shots in just 27 minutes of action as well as finding the back of the net in Tottenham’s 4-0 win over Manchester City earlier in the season. Johnson has the ability to hurt City with his speed running in behind their aggressive high line. He’ll be up against Josko Gvardiol who likes to get forward which should offer encouragement to Johnson who can vacate the space that Gvardiol leaves leading to shots on goal. 

There is value with this selection when backing with Bet365, the same market is priced as low as 1.53 with some bookmakers making the 1.83 offered here quite generous when considering Johnson’s shot record this season and the confidence he’ll have a result of his brace last time out.
