Team news & rosters
| Position | Tottenham roster |
|---|---|
| Goalkeepers | Lloris, Gollini, Whiteman |
| Defenders | Doherty, Reguilon, Sanchez, Rodon, Dier, Sessegnon, Aurier, Tanganga, Davies |

It has been a turbulent off-season for Spurs, having struggled to both replace Jose Mourinho as head coach and keep England captain Kane happy amid another barren season.
That the Three Lions striker could face the team who have pursued him hardest over the transfer window will not be lost on either party - but it could be a familiar Spurs side that features in their opener, with new recruits Bryan Gil only recently returned from Olympic duty and Cristian Romero still injured.
Predicted Tottenham starting XI: Lloris; Doherty, Sanchez, Aurier, Reguilon; Winks, Hojbjerg; Bergwijn, Son, Moura; Kane.
| Man City roster | |
|---|---|
| Goalkeepers | Steffen, Ederson, Carson |
| Defenders | Walker, Dias, Stones, Ake, Zinchenko, Laporte, Mendy, Cancelo, Sandler |
| Midfielders | Gundogan, Grealish, Rodri, De Bruyne, Fernandinho, Silva, Roberts, Foden, Palmer, Knight |
| Forwards | Sterling, Jesus, Torres, Mahrez, Edozie |
Having come up short in the Community Shield against Leicester thanks to a last-gasp Kelechi Iheanacho penalty, Pep Guardiola's side missed out on an early chance to pick up silverware - but they will still firmly be among the favourites to retain their crown this year.
Their big-money purchase of Jack Grealish has offset the loss of Sergio Aguero in attack, though the need for a talismanic number nine arguably still remains after the Argentine's exit.
Predicted Man City starting XI: Ederson; Walker, Stones, Dias, Zinchenko; Fernandinho, Rodri, Gundogan; Mahrez, Torres, Grealish.
