Pep Guardiola believes his Manchester City side face a challenge to get back to winning ways at Luton this weekend. The champions have gone four games without a Premier League win for the first time since 2017 after successive draws against Chelsea, Liverpool and Tottenham were followed by defeat at Aston Villa on Wednesday.
They will be expected to put that behind them at Kenilworth Road on Sunday but the promoted Hatters have produced some battling performances on their top-flight return and Guardiola expects another.
The City manager said: “They are doing really well for the way they play. Top clubs like Liverpool and Arsenal have struggled to win against them and it will be no different for us. “But at the same time we’re ready for the challenge.
We’ll keep working. That’s what we have to do. “We’ll go to Luton, adapt for the pitch, the team, the style they play. They’ve done really good things but we will try impose our game and break their dynamic.” City’s form has raised eyebrows with some observers questioning their hunger or whether they have become complacent after all their recent successes.
