Preview
Liverpool and Manchester City lock horns in the FA Community Shield final on Saturday, as both teams look to start the season off in style.
The hosts come into this after a loss to Salzburg 1-0 in their previous and final pre-season clash on Wednesday and eye a winning return.
Liverpool’s pre-season campaign wasn’t the best as they won and lost 2 each of their 4 matches.
With the departure of Mané, they have an able replacement in Nunez. But can he strike immediately against a strong City side is for all to see.
On the other hand, The Premier League champions saw off Bayern Munich 1-0 in their previous pre-season clash last week.
Haaland was up and running for his new club as the Norwegian struck the only goal of the contest.
City enjoyed a good pre-season having got the results required, but know the threat their counterparts can provide in this one.
It’s set up to be a thriller as these two sides have played outstanding football to emerge as England’s two best teams.
Both teams last met in a FA Cup semi-final last season, where Liverpool won the contest 3-2.

Prediction: Liverpool 1-1 Man City (Liverpool to win on penalties)
This is a contest expected to be edgy with two of England’s top teams battling it out for glory.
City will be aiming for an attacking start via Haaland while Nunez could emerge as a substitute late on.
We see this going down to the wire with two strong defences holding fort. Liverpool could come out on top in penalties.
