Manchester City are off to a flying ꦡstart in the Premi🔯er League.
The four-time defending champions are 4-0-0 and 🌄have outs🍸cored their opponents, 11-3, along the way.
Erling Haaland has been the star of the show with an unprecedented nine goals in City’s first four matches of the campaign.
All the talk about the Cityzens being slow starters has shifted to questions about whether this is the best version of Manchester City that we’ve ever seen.
City begin their Champions League campaign with a showdown against Inter Milan — the team the Sky Blues defeated in the 2023 Champions League Final — on Wednesday afternoon.

Man City vs. Inter Milan prediction
There’s nothing in the numbers that says City doesn’t deserve to be at the top of the Premier League table, but it is fair to say what they’re doing right now is unsustainable.
That doesn’t mean they’ll come crashing down to earth, but winning nearly every match by a Haaland hat trick seems like a lot to ask of any team.
It’s also noteworthy that City has opened the season with a relatively soft schedule.
They had to deal with Chelsea in the opener, but the Blues were in the mix of a wild transfer window and playing undeཧr a new manager.
Wins over West Ham, Ipswich an𝓡d Brentford were of the taking-𝕴care-of-business variety. ;
It’s likely City will find things a lot more difficult against an Inter team that is quite adept at keeping its shape and playing a structured, responsible style of soccer that is difficult to overwhelm.
Further complicating matters is the fact that City has a monumental match against Arsenal in t♊he Premier League on Sunday.✃
The Gunners have finished runners-up to the Cityzens two years on the spin and appear poised to mount another serious challenge in 2024-’25.
Pep Guardiola and his chaꦗrges will have to ꦺkeep that contest in the back of their mind as they take on Inter on Wednesday.
Man City vs. Inter Milan pick
B🃏oth of these clubs prefer to be on the ball and in 𒁃control, so this could end up being a pretty sluggish match.
