New Kits this Matchweek

There was just the one new kit on show this weekend and it was the 100th Kit of the Premier League Season!

Brighton & Hove Albion wore their 3rd Kit for the first time this season, this was last season’s away kit but in this instance was worn with white shorts.. also meaning that The Seagulls have worn alternative white shorts with all three of their kits in League this season.

Kit Highlights

Manchester City became the first team to wear a kit 20 times this season (out of 27 games) when they played Local Rivals Manchester United.

After calling out their excellent record of Wolverhampton Wanderers in their change kits a few weeks ago, I may have jinxed them as their defeat against Newcastle United was their first loss in a change kit this season (8 games – 5 Away kit / 3 3rd Kit appearences).

My favourite Kit Match Up of this weekend was The Manchester Derby, I do enjoy this Kit Match up when it is played a Manchester City, one of Kit Guilty Pleasures is seeing Manchester United in Black Shorts and especially this season with their default socks being used, giving us this look for just the second time.
