The Community Shield title is not actually a major trophy and I think here Manchester City will also take it easy to win this trophy. On the other hand, Manchester United will probably be more serious about winning it and at the same time it will be a good additional trophy after previously winning the FA Cup trophy.
I don't remember the last time Manchester City took the Community Shield so seriously and at that time Arsenal were always able to beat them in this match. However, I will not assume more and sometimes Pep Guardiola could be quite annoyed because last season they only managed to collect one EPL trophy and maybe this time they will try to win the Community Shield. Looking at the betting odds, Manchester City is far superior and does not consider Manchester United as a worthy challenger, but the over goal option here will be able to secure a safer bet than betting on one of them.
It's true Community Shield isn't a major trophy, but come on, they already take a long break and now this the first serious match before starting the league. It's not make sense if Manchester City can't perform since they're not tired anymore, they should able to give all out in this match. Although, the big upset that Manchester United won in FA Cup really make them can't be underestimated.
But, there are many of Manchester United's players injured, this time the luck will not be in their side.
Still the Community Shield could be important for them in this match, I'm sure they will field their main squad to win this match we don't know how much possession but sure it will be Manchester City.
That is not in favor of Manchester United, some of the main players must be absent due to injury, I don't dare to bet on Manchester United's victory if the situation is like now like a lack of players later.
Maybe Erik Ten Hag will try to make a better strategy in order to win the match with his rivals.
