Manchester City and Olympiakos are playing live on the Guinness International Champions Cup schedule on Saturday and the ICC match is from TCF Bank Stadium in Minneapolis and starts up past 3 pm ET on Fox and the FS Sports Go website online with a live stream and has Man City coming in as Premier League champs and this last group set of games leads into the final next week in Miami.
Manchester City comes in strong and they are the English Premier League champions and they were very high scoring last year and while they have Luis Suarez out to Barcelona, they still should be very good this season. Man City is looking to defend their title and teams like Arsenal, Manchester United and Chelsea are all gunning for the top and this tournament has showcased some of the top teams in Europe. Olympiakos won their first match against AC Milan and the other games to start things off included a win for Manchester United against AS Roma and they won that match.
Man United also won big in their preseason matchup with LA Galaxy and now they are looking to keep things going, while Man City wants to get this season started off right and Olympiakos previously made it into the Champions League last season. Man City has high expectations now with their owners and players like Yaya Toure and Sergio Aguero are expected to have big years and the Greek side is looking to have a big season as well and it comes after Liverpool and Man City faced off in Yankee Stadium already this preseason.
The Reds have made some moves this summer as well and they won over Olympiakos earlier in the tournament and now they have the chance to play against Man City. Manuel Pellegrini said his team has been training well and despite their previous results, he said they should be ready to play on Saturday in the ICC. Olympiakos lost one match and won the other match along with Man City and now both will be looking to get things going at the tournament and City lost to Liverpool on penalties and Raheem Sterling helped put that through.
Liverpool will have a tough season without Suarez, but after his biting incident and the transfer money, there was no choice but to make the move. The loss of Suarez means Sterling will have to step up and it gives Man City the chance to have another strong season ahead of Liverpool after beating them out last year. The EPL was tight until the end and Man City was just too good for everyone else.
