Manchester City supporters will be eagerly counting down the days until competitive action returns to the Etihad Stadium.
On Thursday, Liverpool will visit Manchester in the Carabao Cup with both sides hoping to make a good start as the domestic season resumes. Before then, a City XI will take on Girona in a friendly at the Academy Stadium.
It is expected that City's side will feature a mix of first-team and EDS players as the Blues look to strengthen and get back to match fitness ahead of their long-awaited return. One man who is likely to start both upcoming matches is Sergio Gomez.
