Liverpool will travel to London to face FA Cup winners, Arsenal, after lifting the Premier League trophy 37 days ago. The Reds are favourites for the 2020/21 season opener, however, success or defeat in the Community Shield has mattered little in terms of what comes next in the Premier League.
Only eight Community Shield winners out of 28 have gone on to claim the title. And with an extra week before the Premier League gets underway on September 12 separating the start of the season and Saturday's showpiece, there will still be time to refresh and refine before Liverpool begin the defence of their crown.
