How Manchester United should line up vs Man City in Community Shield fixture

manchestereveningnews.co.uk

Manchester United take on Manchester City in the Community Shield on Saturday afternoon. United won the FA Cup thanks to a stunning victory over City in May and the two sides will meet again at Wembley this weekend for the Community Shield.

The fixture is the United's last this summer before the start of the new Premier League campaign and Erik ten Hag must oversee a drastic improvement after a dismal 2023/24.

Joshua Zirkzee and Leny Yoro have been signed, but Yoro sustained a metatarsal injury on tour in the United States and has been ruled out of action for around three months.

Rasmus Hojlund is set to be sidelined for up to six weeks with a hamstring injury, while Harry Maguire, Luke Shaw, Victor Lindelof and Aaron Wan-Bisska are fitness doubts.
