This month, before the 2024–25 Premier League season starts, Manchester City will play in another Community Shield game.
Three times before, Pep Guardiola’s team has been to Wembley Stadium for the Community Shield final and lost all three times.

Two Manchester United players will not be able to play in the Community Shield match against Manchester City.
United’s official club website recently posted an article about their upcoming pre-season game against Liverpool. In it, they said that Lenny Yoro “is set to be absent for around three months with a foot injury” and that Rasmus Hojlund “faces around six weeks on the sidelines due to a hamstring problem.”
City will want to get back at United.
Yoro just moved to United from Lille last month in a deal worth just under £59 million (Sky Sports).
Also in the summer transfer window, Manchester United paid a lot of money to get Hojlund from Atlanta. According to Sky Sports, they paid £72m for the scorer, who scored 10 goals in 30 Premier League games last season.
Even though this is bad news for United, we think City’s only goal will be to end their losing streak in Community Shield finals and get back at their rivals after losing the FA Cup final a few months ago.
