#MCIARS: Five things to look out for

It's difficult to know exactly what to expect when the Premier League resumes after its three-month hiatus, but one thing is for sure, there will be plenty of differences from the football we are used to seeing. The main one being, of course, the absence of fans in the stadium. Attendance at the Etihad Stadium on Wednesday is limited to playing and coaching staff, broadcasters, members of the media and essential event operators. It's the first time we will ever have played a competitive game behind closed doors, though we did arrange two warm up games at Emirates Stadium under similar conditions in an attempt to ready the team for a very different atmosphere.
