A lot of people have been putting the boot into Manchester City after their performance in the Community Shield.

I don't think they will win the Premier League, but they aren't going to fall away to mid-table either. Look at the players they have got - I still think they will be right up there.

I'm expecting Bournemouth to be very attack-minded under Marco Rose, after watching his teams at RB Leipzig and Red Bull Salzburg.

He is a front-foot coach but, in his first game, will he really be brave enough try to go toe-to-toe with City at Etihad Stadium?

I think he will and, because of that, I think there will be goals... but most of them will be scored by City.

Sutton's prediction: 4-1
