So far this season Manchester City have won the Community Shield and won their opening away league game at Arsenal. Kevin De Bruyne didn't play in either of those games so City aren't likely to lose too much sleep over his absence for a few months. City dominated the Premier League last season and won 16 of their 19 home games with the only defeat being by Manchester United. 61 goals were scored in those 19 games with only 14 conceded and there should be a few goals scored in this game.

Huddersfield Town look a side that will again struggle to keep out of the bottom three. They finished 16th last season only four points above the relegation zone and another long hard season lies ahead of them. They began their season with a 3-0 home defeat by Chelsea and last season had a poor time on their travels losing 11 games and only scored 12 goals and three of those were on the opening day of the season at Crystal Palace. They did manage to get a goalless draw here last season at a time when City were getting a bit tired after playing so many games. That's not the case this time around and City can get a comfortable home win leading at both half and full time.
