Manchester City and Inter will face each other in a highly-anticipated preseason friendly as both sides continue their preparations for the new campaign. As Man City head into the match with a severely-weakened squad, we predict a 1-1 draw. The Citizens are set to play their first warm-up match of the summer and are expected to give several youngsters and fringe players a chance to impress. Erling Haaland, Jeremy Doku, Nico O'Reilly, Rayan Cherki, and new signing Elliot Anderson are all expected to be rested, while Jack Grealish remains sidelined through injury. Even so, City's depth should allow them to remain competitive from the first whistle.
Inter, meanwhile, have already kicked off their preseason with a 2-1 victory over Karlsruher and will be looking to build on that positive start. Summer arrival Aleksandar Stankovic is expected to feature in midfield, but captain Lautaro Martinez is likely to be rested. The Nerazzurri have been in excellent form, winning seven of their last ten competitive matches while averaging 2.5 goals per game. However, with both managers likely to rotate heavily and experiment throughout the contest, this promises to be an entertaining but unpredictable affair.
Given their low-scoring H2H, we believe that there is big value in betting on Under 2.5 goals, alongside Half-Time Draw and Draw.
This match will be played on Saturday 1 August 2026 at 12:30.
