Preview

Both sides come into the game having claimed all three points available to them so far. As they both did so with 2-0 victories, they are separated only by the alphabetic order of their names.

We won both of our pre-season friendlies, before the defeat to Liverpool in the Community Shield.

Before that win over Villa, Bournemouth did lose their pre-season friendlies with Real Sociedad and Bristol City.

A fun match is ahead as a home opener is here.

Which team will come out in front?

Team News

Pep Guardiola’s side have Aymeric Laporte and Kalvin Phillips out. Cole Palmer is questionable.

The Cherries have Rothwell and Fredricks out.

Manchester City 4-1 Bournemouth
