Both Manchester City and Manchester United both had mediocre pre-season matches. they sometimes lose and sometimes win. But that's all because both of them only play second-tier players and young players. But in the Community Shield match, I think both teams will play with their full strengths. And I am sure Manchester City will win the match. I still doubt Manchester United. And again, we know that Hojlund, who is also an important player for Manchester United's attack line, is still injured. And it's likely that Hojlund will only return after the end of August. So Hojlund will definitely miss the match. Leny Yoro is a new player but he has shown a very good game at the back but he is also still injured and will probably return after the end of October. The point is that Manchester United may not be completely ready. Meanwhile, Manchester City is always ready.
In addition to these losses, Rashford and Antony were also injured in the match with Betis, I can’t yet find out how serious their injuries are, but I hope they can recover for the match with City, otherwise for ten Hag these will be too big losses. For City this match can have special significance, as rehabilitation for the defeat in the final and I think that Govorila would really like to achieve a confident victory and show who is stronger of the Manchester teams.
