Sheffield United vs Manchester City Preview - 27/08/2023 - Premier League
Manchester City are set to face Sheffield United in the third match week of the Premier League season 2023/24 on August 27.
The Cityzens concluded a highly successful second week of the season as Julian Alvarez's exceptional goal secured a thrilling 1-0 triumph over an energetic Newcastle United squad at the Etihad Stadium.
Pep Guardiola's team commenced their Premier League journey with a 3-0 victory over Burnley the previous Friday and then secured the European Super Cup by triumphing in a memorable penalty shootout against Sevilla, the reigning Europa League champions.
On the other hand, Sheffield United had what appeared to be relatively easy first two games, but they were unsuccessful in gaining any points from their matchups against Crystal Palace and Forest. The next two matches before the international break will see them pitted against Pep Guardiola's City and Everton.
The clash is expected to take place at the Bramall Lane stadium at 14:00 BST.
