FA Community Shield: Leicester City vs Manchester City Live Stream, Preview and Prediction

The FA Community Shield is the customary curtain-raiser for league matches in England, pairing the most recent Premier League champions against the FA Cup holders. This year, Leicester City (FA Cup winners) will meet Manchester City (Premier League Winners) in a battle to win their first piece of the trophy before the new Premier League season.

Leicester City vs Manchester City Match Preview

Despite failing to win any of their first three pre-season friendlies, Leicester holds a player availability benefit over Manchester City. Brendan Rodgers’ whole team has returned to training, including crucial midfielder Youri Tielemans, and the majority of his men have been able to participate in those matches.

The Citizens, on the other hand, are anticipated to be without players like Phil Foden, Raheem Sterling, John Stones, Ederson, and Kyle Walker, who all played prominent roles at Euro 2020 and the Copa America. They might feature a large number of younger players, although the Foxes will be mindful of former stars Riyad Mahrez, Ilkay Gundogan, and Ruben Dias, who have returned to the club.
