Manchester City will take on Chelsea on Saturday in their final pre-season friendly in the United States.
It’s been an entertaining tour for Manchester City who are yet to win in pre-season but have served up three goal-fests to their American fans.
Pep Guardiola’s side kicked things off with a 4-3 defeat to Celtic before losing 3-2 to AC Milan and then playing out a 2-2 draw with Barcelona.
Though results are meaningless, City will no doubt be hoping to return to winning ways against Premier League rivals Chelsea, who have lost to Celtic themselves this summer.
Here’s everything you need to know about the game.

Manchester City vs Chelsea team news
Erling Haaland was taken off at half-time of the draw with Barcelone with ‘niggles’ and might not be risked in another friendly so soon afterwards.
Guardiola said after the game: “Erling is not comfortable. He has niggles, muscular; we don’t want to take a risk and lose him for three weeks or a month.
“That would be a problem. He didn’t feel good, and that’s why he didn’t play the second half.”
However, speaking in his post-match press conference, Guardiola did say Haaland was feeling much better and could be involved.
City have no other injury concerns as they continue to prepare for the new season.
