The 2023 FA Community Shield will be the 101st FA Community Shield, an annual football match played between the winners of the previous season's Premier League and FA Cup competitions. It will take place at Wembley Stadium on 6 August 2023.[2] As Manchester City won both the 2022–23 Premier League and the 2022–23 FA Cup, their opponents will be the Premier League runners-up, Arsenal. The match will be televised live on ITV1 and ITVX.[3]

The match was initially planned to kick-off at 17:30 BST, however this was met with criticism from Manchester City fans who complained about its possible disruption to travelling to the match. Therefore, The Football Association moved kick-off to 16:00 instead on the same day.[4]

Liverpool were the defending champions, but they did not qualify for this edition, having failed to win either the Premier League or FA Cup.

Background

Manchester City qualified for the 2023 FA Community Shield as winners of the 2022–23 Premier League.[5] The club later faced local rivals Manchester United in the 2023 FA Cup final, on course to complete a continental treble.[6] Manchester City defeated Erik ten Hag's side to win their seventh FA Cup and as a result, Arsenal qualified for the 2023 FA Community Shield as Premier League runners-up. This will be a rematch of the 1934 FA Charity Shield and 2014 FA Community Shield, which Arsenal won 4–0[7] and 3–0[8] respectively.

Arsenal will be imposed as the home team of the match. It will return to the home of English football in its 100th anniversary year after the 2022 edition was re-located to Leicester City's King Power Stadium due to the UEFA Women's Euro 2022 final.[9][10][11]
