Premier League
Brighton – Manchester City 2:1
Guardiola suffered four consecutive defeats for the first time in his coaching career. The Spaniard's Manchester City lost 2-1 in the Premier League at Brighton on Saturday in the absence of Manuel Akanji.
Tottenham Hotspur in the Carabao Cup, Bournemouth in the Championship and Sporting Lisbon in the Champions League, along with Brighton, are City's other conquerors in the past ten days. Manchester City hasn't had such a losing streak since 2006. Guardiola has never lost more than three games in a row since taking charge of Barcelona in 2008.
At Brighton, City appeared to have ended their losing streak without Akanji, who spent 90 minutes on the bench. Erling Haaland's lead midway through the first half lasted until the 78th minute. Then, within five minutes, Joao Pedro and Matt O'Reilly turned the tables against an increasingly restless Citizens, who sorely missed their injured director and Ballon d'Or winner Rodri.
Thank you to everyone who came to Brighton for the overwhelming support.

The success in the 13th round, thanks to Vinicius Junior's hat-trick and others, came at a high price. Rodrygo, Edel Militao and Lucas Vazquez were injured in the first half. The club announced that Ed Militao has suffered a torn cruciate ligament.

Ligue 1
Strasbourg-Monaco 1:3
Only one of the three Swiss players played in Monaco's 1-3 away win over Strasbourg. Captain Denis Zakaria remains injured and goalkeeper Philip Cohen is still only No. 2. Blair Embolo was in the starting lineup but was substituted at half-time with the home side's score 1-0. After he was substituted, Monaco managed to turn the situation around.

The Nashville Predators were considered a serious Stanley Cup contender but are now in last place in the NHL. This is behind the crisis.
In fact, the Nashville Predators appear to have found a way out of their crisis. Swiss captain Roman Josi's side have won three games in a row after suffering five straight defeats at the start of the season. But after a brief mid-term high, things declined sharply again. The Preds have won just one of their last six games. They lost to the Florida Panthers 6-2 last night. Nashville currently sits in 32nd and last place in the NHL with nine points from 14 games.
