Pep Guardiola‘s men locked horns with Manchester United at Wembley Stadium hoping to get our season off to a winning start.
It was last season’s Premier League champions against the 2024 FA Cup holders, with local bragging rights and a piece of silverware both on the line.
City came into the tie looking to build on a deserved 4-2 win over Chelsea in our final pre-season fixture, while United were hoping to respond to a friendly defeat against Liverpool.
Guardiola confirmed that Ederson would start at Wembley Stadium in his pre-match press conference, with the majority of our EURO 2024 stars also in contention to feature, excluding Rodrigo, Kyle Walker, John Stones and Phil Foden.
Meanwhile, our new signing Savinho was also vying for his City debut having joined the Club this summer from ESTAC Troyes.
