Live onITV1: Sun 14:00 Arsenal take on Chelsea in the FA Community Shield in the annual curtain raiser at Wembley Live scores | Compare odds | Preview…
The football season’s traditional curtain-raiser takes place on Sunday, with Chelsea and Arsenal clashing at Wembley in the Community Shield.
It’s a repeat of the 2017 FA Cup final and the Gunners are 5/2 (bet365) to repeat their triumph of May by winning against their London rivals, while the Blues are 11/10 (Ladbrokes) to enjoy revenge for being denied a domestic double.
The draw is a 5/2 chance with Sky Bet and the game is likely to be played at a fairly pedestrian pace, with Chelsea missing Eden Hazard among others.
However, Alvaro Morata is likely to make his bow and the Spaniard is a 5/1 chance (Stan James) to open the scoring, while Arsenal new boy Alexandre Lacazette is a 6/1 chance (William Hill).
