THE Community Shield is exactly what it is – a pre-season non-event cup game but there’s no doubting the teams playing out the 90 minutes will be taking this seriously.
Tin-pot or not, there’s pre-season bragging rights up for grabs and for that reason it’s worth a punt.
Chelsea have the hoodoo held over them in this game having lost their last 4 Community Shield matches and I can’t help but think prices may be a touch on the generous side for a City win.
WDW has no appeal to me though and instead I reckon the smart money will be on City goals – looks like there will be plenty of chance for new faces to shine but I just cannot see Chelsea being a match forKevin de Bruyne et al’s quality.
Around 65% of the last 9 CS games have seen 3 or more goals and it’s hard to see City not contributing towards that figure here:

- City to score 2+ (3pm)

In December 2020 we sadly 
Chelsea v Man City
For what it’s worth, BTTS seems the more likely call given both sides will be missing a number of important players.
Good shout Bob lol
Afternoon Bob,
Players missing yes but both sides will still be fielding strong sides – Aguero, Bernardo and Sane up top is enough for me.
At 8/15 I don’t see any value in btts but best of luck ?
I think his criticism was a little harsh – he doesn’t like it when someone has a go at him.
Off out to watch the rest of the game at a Beer Festival. Life is tough sometimes.
Eh? Must’ve missed something here?
No idea what Bob had to say but glad I didn’t go for the Btts at 8/15!
