Liverpool have had mixed results this pre-season, splitting their matches with two wins and two losses. Meanwhile, Man City have not lost since being knocked by Real Madrid 5-6 on aggregate in the UEFA Champions League. Let’s now take an in-depth look into both teams.
Liverpool v Man City Community Shield Prediction – Preview
Liverpool F.C.
Liverpool finished 2021/22 with a double-trophy win, lifting both the EFL and FA Cups. However they fell short of a quadruple when Man City squeaked by them in the EPL race, whilst Real Madrid beat them anew in the UCL final. Now, Jurgen Klopp’s men are determined to better their record last year, with key changes in the lineup. Although the great Sadio Mane has left for Bayern Munich, the future looks bright with new recruit Darwin Nunez in the lineup. Their pre-season has however hit a few snags as they lost 0-4 to Man Utd in Bangkok, and soon after winning two games in a row again against Crystal Palace (2-0) and RB Leipzig (5-0) respectively before losing once more to RB Salzburg (0-1). And with main keeper Alisson in doubt for the Community ShielD, one wonders if they have enough to get past the Cityzens, whom they narrowly dominated last season.
Manchester City F.C.
Manchester City are also determined to win more trophies especially their first ever UCL cup, while they also try to defend their throne in England. While they had to part ways with some seasoned members, such as Gabriel Jesus and Raheem Sterling, they scored with arguably the deal of the summer as they signed Borussia Dortmund phenom Erling Haaland. In the preseason, the Pep Guardiola-helmed side also kept their unbeaten record from last season as Kevin De Bruyne netted twice against Club America (2-0) and Haaland picked up his very first goal, ironically, in a win against Bayern Munich (1-0). And while European glory is still much in the Cityzens’ sights, a renewal of enmity against the Reds looms in the horizon this weekend as they battle for the shield.

Liverpool v Man City Community Shield Prediction – Final Thoughts
Just like last year, these two sides are the favourites not just for the English title, but for Europe as well. Both Liverpool and Man City have had a productive transfer window, and this event may be the most proper display of their talent heading into the new campaign. While not as storied as most championships, the Community Shield is still a great addition to a trophy case, and both teams will try to prove themselves the better than the other, more than anything in this match. But if we are going by pre-season form alone, we think the Cityzens will have the slight edge, finally getting past the Reds in one-on-one competition. Let’s take a look at the prediction.
