Manchester City midfielder Rodri is expecting another testing title battle with Liverpool this season and believes four other sides are capable of fighting for Premier League silverware.
City and Liverpool were separated by a single point following the final matchday of the 2021/22 campaign, a scenario that was also witnessed in 2018/19 as Pep Guardiola's side narrowly came out on top. Many are predicting another competitive campaign involving the two teams, who have been a cut above the rest in the division for quite some time.
Jurgen Klopp's men got the better of the Sky Blues on Saturday afternoon to claim the Community Shield, sending out an early warning to their closest rivals ahead of the top-flight return. The reigning champions will now be eager to issue a response to this defeat and retain their Premier League crown for another year.
