The much-awaited Premier League 2023-24 is all set to kick-start from 12th August 2023. It will be taking place at the Turf Moor Stadium and is slated to begin from 12:30 AM (IST).
Manchester City finished as the winners of the Premier League in the previous edition after their dominating performances right throughout the tournament. In 38 matches, the Cityzens had registered 28 wins and 5 draws.
Led by Pep Guardiola’s brilliant tactical awareness and presence of mind, Manchester City registered a fabulous victory. Notably, they also were crowned as the Treble winners after they had won the FA Cup and the UEFA Champions League.
Burnley on the other hand, topped the English Football League (EFL) Championship 2022-23, which is the second-tier football league of England. They were quite dominant throughout the tournament and stamped their authority in full force.
They registered 29 victories in 46 games and had 14 draws in the 2022-23 edition of EFL. Along with Burnley, Sheffield United and Luton Town also gained promotion to the Premier League 2023-24.
Another interesting fact to note is that Burnley’s manager Vincent Kompany is a former Manchester City legend. The former left-back played 265 matches for Manchester City between 2008 to 2019 and had netted 18 goals.
He then moved to Anderlecht, which is a Belgian football club and played 15 matches for them.
Some of the key players of Manchester City in the last season in the form of Ilkay Gundogan, Riyad Mahrez, Shea Charles and Josh McNamara have all moved out of the club.
Mateo Kovacic has been brought in from Chelsea to Manchester City for a whopping transfer amount of €29.1M. The 29-year-old Croatian midfielder would be hoping to fill in the boots of Ilkay Gundogan and Riyad Mahrez in the City team.
