This match offers us a chance to start next season strongly and try to win a trophy as early as possible.
City will come into that season as favourites, but they might be hung over from their celebrations during the holidays, which could see us defeat them.
However, our boys will also be on holiday this summer, so we risk having them back unfit.
Hopefully, that will not be the case and they will return to the club in top shape.
