Former Manchester City and England goalkeeper Joe Hart has been previewing City's opening Champions League fixture against Inter Milan on BBC Radio 5 Live Breakfast.

"They [City] go into nearly every tournament at the moment expecting to win it, but with that, because everything's new and they've only won it once [the Champions League], they've still got that hunger there.

"It's not an arrogant expectancy that some teams fully deserve to have. Real Madrid last night were probably thinking: 'Matchday one - we'll take care of it and win, lose or draw, we'll be in the final.'

"Inter were very successful last year and strong defensively, but away from home they've not been too good this year. [They've conceded] a few goals that are very uncharacteristic for them and City have got Erling Haaland, who is absolutely boiling hot right now."
