Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola is expecting 'lots of clubs' to be involved in the Premier League title chase this season.
City raise the curtain on the 2022/23 campaign be facing Liverpool in the FA Community Shield on Saturday at Leicester's King Power Stadium.
Liverpool and City have occupied the top two spots in three of the last four seasons with the latter winning the title on three occasions and Jurgen Klopp's men once.
Clubs like Arsenal, Tottenham and Chelsea have heavily invested this summer in a bid to close the gap to the top two and Manchester United's decision to hire Erik Ten Hag represents a clear direction and identity for the club.
