The likes of Arsenal and Liverpool will be chasing Pep Guardiola's side, but just as fascinating will be the race for Champions League places, with more teams than ever before having designs on top-four finishes. Chelsea remain big-spending, Manchester United's latest rebuild continues and both Tottenham and Newcastle will expect improvements this year - yet it was Aston Villa who snared fourth last term.

Konate launches the ball down the pitch and picks out the run of Mac Allister, but neither he, nor Diaz are able to find the room to shoot on the edge of the penalty area, with the Colombia international’s pass out to the right intercepted by Udogie.

ALMOST A SENSATIONAL OPENER! Mac Allister’s initial corner is punched away by Vicario, but only as far as Szoboszlai 20 yards from goal. The Hungary international mishits his shot towards goal, taking the ball into the feet of Gakpo on the penalty spot with his back to goal. Without the space to turn, the forward flicks it up over his head and attempts an audacious overhead-kick, only to miss the target narrowly!

Van Dijk plays a long, raking ball forward for the run of Gakpo, who extends fully to bring the pass down under his spell before prodding a half-volley towards goal. Seemingly headed off-target, Vicario gets in the way and takes a touch to give Liverpool a corner instead.

Tel cuts inside from the left, skipping past Mac Allister and Szoboszlai on his way into the 18-yard box but the forward slips at a crucial time and shows just enough of the ball to Konate, who swipes it away.

Tel swings a cross in from the left towards the penalty spot that takes a glancing touch off the head of Solanke. The ball then falls at the far post to Johnson, but a heavy first touch allows Robertson to step in and clear the danger.

Danso wrestles Diaz to the ground 30 yards from goal, giving Liverpool an early free-kick to test Vicario. Mac Allister instead works the set-piece short to the right and combines with Salah to facilitate a dangerous one-two on the edge of the penalty area, but the Egypt international blazes his eventual shot over the bar.
