Chelsea are going face to face with Manchester City at the Wembley Stadium in the 2018 FA Community Shield fixture. The match will be played in London on Sunday, August 5th.
Chelsea will now play under the guidance of Maurizio Sarri in the new season who is known for his offensive playing style propaganda. However, before Sarri came to London the team had been under the guidance of Antonio Conte who had been known for his defensive playing style propaganda. Sarri will likely need a lot of time to rebuild the Blues. It`s worth noting that there are a lot of good attackers in the squad of Chelsea who will likely find a common language with their new manager. For example, Willian, Pedro, Cesc Fabregas, Eden Hazard. There are some ongoing problems with Alvaro Morata who was probably confused by the damn 9th number in the team.

Pep Guardiola and his team had an amazing last season. They showed great performances in the Premier League and had no real competition. But this upcoming FA Community Shield match will be a whole another deal because a lot of the key players for the Citizens will miss it. There have been talks that the leader of the team Kevin De Bruyne would miss the match but Manchester City would likely suffer only a little from that. Furthermore they have Ilkay Gundogan who will be able to successfully replace Kevin in the squad. Also the team has been enhanced with Riyad Mahrez this summer. Riyad is a great player and he will be 100% prepared for the upcoming match.
Both teams are likely to put all their effort in this fixture and to score a lot of goals. Maurizio Sarri and Pep Guardiola will set a task for their players to play offensively.
Prediction for the match: Over 3.0 goals scored.
