Arsenal vs Chelsea live stream: Watch Community Shield online

Arsenal and Chelsea are ready for round two after the Gunners took round one in the FA Cup Final. Here are all the ways to watch the match unfold.

The preseason is about to end in a glorious bang as Arsenal and Chelsea square off at Wembley just over two months from their previous duel in the FA Cup Final. Of course, there was that preseason match in between, but no one really cares about that.

The FA Cup Final went the exact opposite way everyone expected, as the down-and-out Gunners took the fight to title-winning Chelsea. The 2-1 scoreline did not do justice to the domination that Arsene Wenger‘s men put up to take home the most improbably of trophies.

And now, as FA Cup Winners and EPL title winners, we do it all over again.

While the Community Shield is still technically a preseason match and not a major trophy (unless you ask Jose Mourinho) there is going to be plenty of competitive spirit in this one. Any time these two teams meet, there is enough fight to make you believe the very future of these two teams was on the line.

There are numerous questions circling the match, mostly pertaining to who we may see take the pitch. Alexis Sanchez has only just returned to training on Tuesday, so while he may well slip on as a late impact substitution, the likelihood of him starting are slim to none.

Instead, we will have to rely on the same players that have taken us through such a successful preseason. Names like Aaron Ramsey and Mesut Ozil come to mind, but always, always remember that Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain is a massive impact maker himself.

On Chelsea’s end, we probably won’t be seeing Diego Costa, who can’t get out of London fast enough. Instead, we will likely be facing Michy Batshuayi or their new boy, Alvaro Morata.

And of course, we all want to know how that new signing will compare to our own in Alexandre Lacazette, who must be getting a bit of the jitters or, if he isn’t now, certainly will be he walks out to a packed Wembley and gets his first taste of the competitive nature of his future.
