This Saturday starts strong in the first league with the confrontation at 1:30 p.m. between Manchester City and Tottenham who succeeded in the championship last week (4-0 for the Skyblues in Wolverhampton, 3-0 for the Spurs against Burnley). Scorer seven minutes after entering the game for his debut in the English championship with the Cityzens, Rayan Cherki was rewarded with his first tenure this afternoon, in the 4-2-3-1 of Pep Guardiola. Back in the group, Ederson, who could leave the club by the end of the summer transfer window, will sit on the bench, just like Phil Foden and Rodri. New captain of the skyblues, Bernardo Silva will do the same, yielding his armband to Ruben Dias, who recently extended his contract.

Among visitors, there are two changes in the 4-3-3 of Thomas Frank, where Rodrigo Bentancur and JoĂŁo Palhinha relay in the midfield Archie Gray and Lucas Bergvall. The defense remains unchanged, just like the attack where Richarlison, author of a double against Burnley at the opening, will be accompanied on the wings by Mohammed Kudus and Brennan Johnson. Definitely transferred to Spurs this summer, the international French hopes Mathys Tel will be on the bench, in a group amputated many major elements (Bissouma, Dragusin, Kulusevski, Maddison, Udogie).
