    Arsenal and Manchester City will meet at Cardiff’s Millennium Stadium on Sunday with the 2026 Community Shield at stake, setting up an intriguing clash between the reigning Premier League champions and FA Cup winners. The fixture also brings back memories of the 2023 edition, when Arsenal defeated City on penalties. Mikel Arteta’s side will be hoping for another successful trip to Cardiff as they aim to add a 18th Community Shield crown to their history. Arsenal have enjoyed considerable success in the competition, with only Manchester United having collected more outright victories. Arsenal head into the match after an inconsistent pre-season, winning only one of their four official friendly fixtures before ending the campaign with penalty-shootout victories over Borussia Dortmund and Como. Their preparation has also been affected by defensive injuries, with Jurrien Timber and William Saliba expected to remain unavailable. David Raya is set to return in goal, while new signing Bruno Guimaraes could make his competitive debut from the start. Declan Rice, Bukayo Saka and Martin Zubimendi are unlikely to feature from the opening whistle because they have not played during pre-season, leaving Arteta with several selection decisions to make.

      The Gunners' defense has taken a severe hit as two key defenders are out due to injuries, one of which is a long - term setback. However, core players like Saka and Rice have participated in training and are likely to feature in this game. On the other hand, Manchester City's new manager is set for his first official game in charge. Apart from a midfield linchpin who is recovering from a back operation, the rest of the squad is available. Haaland has recovered from a minor injury and will lead the attack. Arsenal has an undefeated record against Manchester City in the Community Shield. But many of their World - Cup - involved players have just returned, and both teams' lineup integrity has been affected. In the preseason, Arsenal's form has been inconsistent. Meanwhile, Manchester City ended their Asian tour with a comeback victory, showing good momentum. The question now is whether Arsenal's depleted defense can withstand the impact of Manchester City's new - manager debut in this Com

      Arsenal's defense has suffered significant setbacks. Starting center - back William Saliba aggravated his back injury during the World Cup and will miss the start of the season. Jurrien Timber's groin injury is still not healed and he needs a few more weeks to recover. It is expected that Mikel Arteta will deploy a 4 - 2 - 3 - 1 formation. David Raya will guard the goal. Ben White, new signing Mosquera, Gabriel Magalhães and Takehiro Tomiyasu will form the defensive line. In midfield, Bruno Guimarães, who joined from Newcastle United in the summer transfer window, is very likely to start directly, forming a new midfield triangle with Martin Ødegaard and Lewis Skelly. On the other hand, Manchester City also faces the absence of key players in the first official match of the post - Pep Guardiola era. Rodri is still recovering from back surgery and will not play in this game. Bernardo Silva and John Stones have left the club, so the team's midfield needs to be reorganized. Enzo Maresca

    • Ajax will welcome Heerenveen to the Johan Cruyff Arena on Sunday looking to maintain their perfect start to the new Eredivisie campaign and build further momentum after reaching the Conference League playoff round. Michel’s side remain unbeaten in competitive football since his appointment, although their impressive winning run came to an end with a 2-2 draw against Shelbourne in midweek. Ajax had already built a 3-1 advantage from the first leg, allowing them to progress despite another defensive display that highlighted their ongoing struggles at the back. Heerenveen will arrive in Amsterdam with confidence after opening their league campaign with a 1-0 victory over Twente. Their attacking form during pre-season was particularly encouraging, with at least three goals scored in each of their four warm-up matches before the more cautious opening-day performance. Robin Veldman’s team will hope that attacking momentum can expose Ajax’s defensive weaknesses, although their away reco
