If you’re wondering how to watch the Community Shield then the good news is that it’s streaming for FREE in the U.K. But don’t worry if you’re on holiday while it’s on — because you can watch the Liverpool vs Man City live stream from anywhere with a VPN (opens in new tab). We’ll show you how below. For many fans, the game will be a chance to see exciting new signings for the first time. For Manchester City, there is Erling Haaland of course, while Liverpool have brought Darwin Nunez on board. Somewhat surprisingly, Nunez has been left on the bench today, but Haaland does start. The Reds have also notably brought in the highly rated Fábio Carvalho from Fulham over the summer, while Kalvin Phillips left Leeds for the blue half of Manchester; neither starts today. Julian Alvarez and Stefan Ortega have also joined City, but Raheem Sterling has headed off to Chelsea and Gabriel Jesus and Oleksandr Zinchenko have moved to Arsenal. Liverpool, meanwhile, will start life without Sadio Mané. Here’s how they line up: Liverpool: Adrian, Alexander-Arnold, Van Dijk, Matip, Robertson, Fabinho, Henderson, Thiago, Diaz, Firmino, Salah. Manchester City star signing Erling Haaland is straight into the action, getting a start up front for the Premier League champions. Man City: Ederson, Walker, Dias, Ake, Cancelo, Rodri, De Bruyne, Silva, Mahrez, Grealish, Haaland. Liverpool have won or shared the Community Shield and its predecessor, the Charity Shield, 15 times. Manchester City have claimed it six times, but lost this fixture last season to then-FA Cup holders Leicester City. Leicester’s King Power Stadium will host this year’s match, as Wembley prepares for England vs Germany Women’s Euro 2022 final on Sunday. With Pep Guardiola and Jurgen Klopp set to battle for the top prizes once again, who can claim the first win? Find out by watching the Liverpool vs Manchester City live stream, which we’ll show you how to do below.
