Manchester City will base itself on the Gold Coast for 11 days before heading to Melbourne to take on Real Madrid and Roma in the International Champions Cup presented by Audi, as it ramps up its preparations for the 2015-2016 season.
"We couldn't be more pleased to be welcoming our sister club Manchester City FC to Australia and indeed to be playing against them in a historic game at CBus Super Stadium," Melbourne City CEO Scott Munn said.

"As an A-League club well acquainted with the area having played here several times, we know that the facilities on offer in the Gold Coast are second to none and this opportunity is a fantastic way for both teams to get ready for our respective seasons ahead."

The game kicks off at 5pm local time.
