Manchester City take on Sevilla in the Uefa Super Cup in Athens tonight.
A maiden Champions League success over Inter Milan in June sealed a Treble-winning campaign for Pep Guardiola’s side and booked their place in this showpiece fixture in the Greek capital, with Sevilla the opponents after the Spanish outfit once again won the Europa League by beating Jose Mourinho’s Roma.
City were bested on penalties by Arsenal in the Community Shield at Wembley but got their Premier League season off to a successful start on Friday with victory over Burnley.

Man City vs Sevilla prediction
City were dominant against Burnley to kick their Premier League season off despite not being at their best, and were the better team against Arsenal in the Community Shield before losing on penalties.
Only once in the past decade has the previous season’s Europa League winner won the Uefa Super Cup, with Sevilla themselves regularly tasting defeat. That pattern looks set to continue here.
Man City to win, 2-0.
