Preview:
Manchester City take on Club America today in a pre-season friendly. The two sides are facing off for the first time in history.
Manchester City are playing for the first time this summer and should be looking to start off with a big win. Erling Haaland will be making his debut today and all eyes will be on him.
Club America lost to Chelsea earlier this week and have not been at their best in Liga MX too. They have lost two of their last three matches in all competitions.
Suspension and injuries:
Manchester City: No player is ruled out.
Club America: Ross Barkley and Armando Broja are ruled out.
Starting line-up:
Manchester City: Ederson; Walker, Dias, Ake, Cancelo; Phillips, Rodri, De Bruyne; Mahrez, Haaland, Bernardo
Club America: Ochoa; Sanchez, Valdez, Caceres, Reyes; Aquino, Dos Santos; Damm, Fidalgo, Layun; Martin
Top picks:
Erling Haaland: The striker will be looking to make a big impression today and score a few goals. He will be the best captaincy pick of the day.
Riyad Mahrez: The winger will also be a decent pick as he has done well when played on the right. He could very well be playing there today and should be able to at least get an assist.
Kevin de Bruyne: The Belgian will be the best vice-captaincy pick if Haaland is picked as the captain. He will enjoy playing with the striker as he will be making good runs.
Captaincy options:
- Erling Haaland
- Kevin de Bruyne
- Riyad Mahrez
