This Sunday, reigning Premier League champions Arsenal take on FA Cup holders Manchester City.
The teams will contest the Community Shield at the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff. BBN has already compiled the predicted starting line-ups for this important clash.
Manager Mikel Arteta is expected to stick with his preferred 4-3-3 formation. Standing between the sticks will likely be Kepa. The back four should consist of Ben White, Christian Moskera, Gabriel, and Riccardo Calafiori. In midfield, fans can expect to see Martin Ødegaard, Bruno Guimaraes, and Myles Lewis-Skelly. Up front, the attacking trio will comprise Max Doughman, Victor Dijkeresh, and Christos Tsolis.
On the other side, new Manchester City boss Enzo Maresca is likely to opt for a 4-2-3-1 formation. In goal could be Gianluigi Donnarumma. His defensive unit may include Mateus Nunes, Abdulkodir Husanov, Ruben Dias, and Josko Gvardiol. In the holding midfield roles, we can expect Nicolas Gonzalez and Mateo Kovacic. Just behind the striker will be Savinho, Phil Foden, and Antoine Semenyo, with Omar Marmoush leading the line.
This match will serve as a final pre-season test for both teams ahead of the new Premier League campaign.
