The 2024/25 campaign officially kicks off among English top-flight teams with the Community Shield at Wembley - and it’s the same two teams meeting as were on that pitch at the end of May for the FA Cup final.
Manchester United triumphed in that game, quite possibly salvaging Erik ten Hag’s job in the process, and they’ll once more face a derby encounter with a trophy as the prize, against reigning Premier League champions Manchester City.
Silverware might be on the line but this is essentially a glorified friendly, baring little relevance to the season ahead - yet it will be an important part of both teams’ preparations regardless, as league action is just one week away. United in particular are struggling with injuries at the start of the season, while Man City haven’t had all their Euro 2024 and Copa America stars back for long, so additional practice time on the pitch is of the essence.

Is Man Utd vs Man City on TV? Kick-off time, channel and how to watchThe traditional curtain-raiser for the Premier League season serves up a Manchester derby after United’s 2-1 FA Cup victory in May
Chris Wilson10 August 2024 14:156 minutes agoCommunity Shield is a perfect restart – except Man United face many of the same old issuesFor Erik ten Hag, the new start comes in the fixture that could have been his endgame. He could have bowed out against Manchester City at Wembley. Instead, reports of his demise proved exaggerated. Manchester United confounded expectations. He won the FA Cup and lost the sack race. Ten Hag’s reward was to keep his job, with a one-year extension triggered, and another Manchester derby in London, two months later and after making two summer signings.

Neighbours and rivals Manchester City and Manchester United face off on Saturday at the Wembley Stadium to vie for the FA Community Shield 2024 title.
Winners of the English Premier League and the FA Cup meet in this fixture. At the end of the 2023-24 season, City clinched its fourth consecutive league title, leaving Arsenal to be content with second place for the second season running.
Interestingly, the Manchester sides met in the FA Cup final. It was Erik Ten Hag’s men who pipped Pep Guardiola’s league winners to the cup trophy.
Historically, United is the most successful team with 21 FA Community Shield titles, with the last one coming back in 2016. On the other hand, City has won six titles, with the most recent one being in 2019.
PREDICTED LINEUPS
Manchester City: Ederson (GK), Gvardiol, Ake, Akanji, Dias, Kovacic, Silva, De Bruyne, Doku, Grealish, Haaland.
