Burnley boss Vincent Kompany is happy to host Manchester City for the Premier League kickoff.
Former City captain Kompany says they won't be intimidated facing the champions.
He said: "It's great we can start the Premier League campaign in front of our own fans with a home match.
"Burnley supporters helped make Turf Moor a fortress last season and we'll look to them this season to continue that."
Kompany also said: "We all know every match this season is massive but for the reigning champions of the Championship to face the Premier League champions feels like the perfect curtain raiser.
"We aim to continue this season as we finished the last - doing everything we can to make our fans happy."
