Arsenal have had mixed results over their last few games. Meanwhile, Man City have mostly won their last match, but have only participated in two preseason matches. Both sides, however, are coming into this match fresh off pre-season losses. Let’s now take an in-depth look into both teams.
Arsenal v Man City Community Shield Prediction – Preview
Arsenal F.C.
Arsenal infamously led for around 200 games in the EPL before Man City made a late rally and captured the title for a third consecutive season. This season, Mikel Arteta and his men are determined to take home domestic and international titles in a revenge tour of sorts. They have fortified their lineup this summer by adding formidable new players such Chelsea’s Kai Havertz and West Ham’s Declan Rice. The Gunners were also off to a roaring start, as they defeated the MLS All-Stars 5-0 in a special US match, prevailed over Barcelona. 5-3 in a club friendly and won the Emirates Cup over Monaco, 1(5)-1(4). However, they also incurred injuries to key players, including Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Jesus. Despite this, can they finally win over tormentors Man City at Wembley.
Manchester City F.C.
Manchester City are out to continue their football dominance after their historic treble-winning season. They became only the second English club to win the EPL, the FA Cup and the UEFA Champions League in a single season after Manchester United in 1998/99. Manager Pep Guardiola also recorded his second career treble after doing it with Barcelona back in 2008/09. And while they lost key veterans such Ilkay Gundogan and Riyad Mahrez this summer, they also picked up new talent such as Chelsea’s Mateo Kovacic and RB Leipzig’s Josko Gvardiol. Last week, the Cityzens sprung back into action with two club friendlies, as they beat Bayern Munich (2-1) and lost to Atletico Madrid (1-2). Will their official season get off to a huge start against the Gunners?
