Chelsea vs Manchester City Prediction & Betting Tips - Community Shield
by Steve Ashfield | in Football Predictions
It's not much more than a glorified friendly but this Sunday sees the Community Shield take place between Premier League champions Manchester City and FA Cup winners Chelsea. It'll be interesting to see the line-ups that these two sides put out for this match. Both have been playing in the International Champions Cup and been without most of their World Cup players. Those who played for England and Belgium aren't expected to be playing this weekend so that rules out a fair few players. Both clubs have strong squads but City's looks the strongest at present and new signing Riyad Mahrez, who they finally bought from Leicester City this summer is expected to play despite a recent injury. Chelsea will be playing under new boss Maurizio Sarra who has been promising some exciting football to be played by his new club. This isn't easy to predict but judged on recent results and games between these two sides, go for under 2.5 goals to be scored.
