Arsenal vs Manchester City: FA Community Shield Live Stream, Form Guide, Head to Head, Schedule, Fixture and Probable Lineups

The Community Shield, a customary Premier League opener, takes place at Wembley Stadium on Sunday. Arsenal and Manchester City compete for the title. City comes into the match after a 2-1 loss to Atletico Madrid in their latest friendly, whereas Arsenal secured the Emirates Cup by defeating Monaco.

While Pep Guardiola’s triumphant treble-winning team celebrated their victories, Arsenal quietly secured a spot in the Community Shield due to their second-place finish in the 2022-23 Premier League. Despite a late stumble preventing them from claiming the title, Arsenal’s league campaign exceeded expectations. Mikel Arteta’s squad could earn silverware on Sunday. They recently defended their Emirates Cup title in a penalty shootout against Monaco. Notably, Arsenal has excelled in the Community Shield, winning their last four matches, including a penalty victory over Liverpool in 2020. They aim for their 17th Community Shield title, challenging Liverpool’s second place behind Manchester United’s 21 victories.

Arsenal’s strong history in the Community Shield is well-known. However, Arteta is aware that his team will likely be considered the underdogs against Man City, despite the Sky Blues’ imperfect preseason preparations. After their triumphant 2022-23 season, Man City toured Japan and South Korea, enjoying an 8-3 win against Yokohama F. Marinos but later suffering a loss to Atletico Madrid. As they pursue a seventh Community Shield title, they’ve had to face defeats in the last two editions. While Arsenal secured a 2015 victory against Man City, their recent encounters with European champions have been challenging, with eight consecutive losses since the 2019-20 FA Cup semi-finals.

Probable lineups

Arsenal probable starting lineup: Ramsdale, Timber, Saliba, Gabriel, Tomiyasu, Odegaard, Rice, Partey, Saka, Nketiah, Martinelli

Manchester City probable starting lineup: Ederson, Walker, Dias, Akanji, Stones, Rodri, Silva, Kovacic, Foden, Grealish, Haaland
