Pep Guardiola’s side were denied the double in their last competitive fixture when Erik ten Hag’s side beat them in the FA Cup final and this fixture has not been kind to them in recent years. They lost last season’s Community Shield on penalties to Arsenal and beat Liverpool on spot-kicks in 2019.
Winning the League and FA Cup in successive seasons is surely what has kept Ten Hag in a job and he will be looking to win this trophy however how small many fans might look at it. They haven’t had a convincing preseason prep but should be ready for the tie as their opponents haven’t been at their bet too in their summer games.
H2H / Stats
Man City wins: 61
Draws: 53
Man Utd wins: 79
Team News
Guardiola had suggested Erling Haaland needs to have his minutes managed but the striker has since scored a hat-trick against Chelsea, so should start here. Rico Lewis, Ederson and Kalvin Phillips may also feature and Jack Grealish should be given the nod.
United have lost Leny Yoro and Rasmus Hojlund to injury, while Jonny Evans and Victor Lindelof are doubts. Ten Hag has hinted at using Bruno Fernandes and Jadon Sancho as strikers in Hojlund’s absence.
Probable Line-Up
Man City XI: Ortega (GK), Stones, Ake, Gvardiol, Walker, Rodri, Kovacic, De Bruyne, Foden, Silva, Haaland
Man United XI: Onana (GK), Evans, Martinez, Wan-Bissaka, Shaw, Casemiro, Mainoo, Fernandes, Diallo, Rashford, Sancho
Verdict
We haven’t seen a goalless Community Shield since 2008 when Man Utd beat Portsmouth on penalties after their game finished 0-0. So we expect Goals here.

Rashford to Score❌
Reason: Rashford has scored six goals in 21 games against Man City across all competitions, only netting more for Man Utd against Leicester (eight) and Liverpool (seven). It was Rashford who scored the only goal for Man Utd in their 3-1 defeat at the Etihad last season, and he has scored for the Red Devils at Wembley.
United to win on Penalties❌
Reason: Man City have lost their last three Community Shields, and they also have a poor recent run when it comes to penalty shootouts. Pep Guardiola’s side have lost three of their last four penalty shootouts, beaten by Real Madrid, Arsenal and West Ham. Two of those came last season, including one in the Community Shield.
