Leicester vs Manchester City - Community Shield 2021: Pep Guardiola's side look to lay down a marker

It barely seems five minutes since the Euros and the Olympics are still dominating the headlines but competitive football is officially back in England this weekend.

The traditional curtain-raiser of the FA Community Shield takes place on Saturday and sees FA Cup holders Leicester City take on Premier League champions Manchester City.

As well as firing the starting gun on the new season - the Premier League kicks-off six days later - it will mark the return of capacity crowds at Wembley as the country returns to some sense of normality post-pandemic.
