Vincent Kompany confident ahead of first Premier League start of season

Manchester City captain Vincent Kompany is confident at making his first Premier League start of the season against Southampton on Sunday, despite having "had no pre-season".

Manchester City captain Vincent Kompany has expressed his confidence at making his first Premier League start of the season against Southampton on Sunday.

The 30-year-old has endured an injury-ravaged spell at the Etihad in recent months and has only just returned from a groin problem incurred in September's EFL Cup tie at Swansea City.

Kompany, who has been named in Pep Guardiola's starting XI against the Saints, told Sky Sports News: "I will use my experience to get through the day, I am excited.

"I have had no pre-season but you have to start somewhere and I am confident. We have been playing well, we are just conceding with every mistake we make at the moment."

Man City are seeking to avoid a fifth game without a win in their match against the south coast side.
