However, goals from Christopher Nkunku, Marc Gulu and Noni Madueke saw them run riot against Club America in their most recent outing.
Meanwhile, Pep Guardiola‘s side have had a torrid pre-season as City lost every match up until this point.
This includes a 4-1 penalty defeat to Barcelona on Wednesday after finishing the 90 minutes on level terms.
But the Premier League champions have not lost to Chelsea since 2021, so they’ll be confident they can keep that run going.
