Is Manchester City vs Arsenal on TV? Kick-off time, TV channel details and live stream

Manchester City kick off the new domestic season when they face Arsenal in the Community Shield.

Pep Guardiola’s side signed off last season in style as the club defeated Inter Milan to win the Champions League and complete the treble, having already won the Premier League and FA Cup. There have been a few changes since then, with Mateo Kovacic signing from Chelsea and both Ilkay Gundogan and Riyad Mahrez leaving the club.

City began their pre-season campaign by recording a 5-3 win over Yokohama F. Marinos at the Japan National Stadium in Tokyo. This was followed by a 2-1 win over Bayern Munich in the same stadium before a narrow defeat to Atletico Madrid in Seoul.

Next up are last season’s title rivals Arsenal at Wembley as City strive to get their hands on an early piece of silverware. Here is how you can follow the action:
