FA Community Shield Live on DSTv, GOtv

The 2021/22 football season in England gets underway with the traditional season-opening fixture, the FA Community Shield between Leicester City and Manchester City.

The game has been promised to be available to all DStv and GOtv customers Live on SuperSport.

The Community Shield will see Nigerian stars and DStv ambassadors, Wilfred Ndidi and Kelechi Iheanacho play for the FA Cup champions, Leicester city, as they face Premier League champions, Manchester City, at the Wembley Stadium in London on Saturday, August 7, 2021 at 5.15pm

The match is to be broadcast live on SuperSport Premier League (DStv channel 203) and SuperSport Football (DStv channel 205 & GOtv channel 31).

Following their UEFA Champions League disappointment last season, Manchester City will be looking to make a major statement of intent in this clash, though Leicester City are a rising force and their FA Cup triumph could be a foundation upon which they build a powerful, title-contending team.

Manchester City and Leicester have met in 122 matches across all competitions since 1895.

The Citizens have claimed 62 wins compared to 31 for the Foxes, while 29 games have been drawn. The teams’ two Premier League meetings last season both produced away wins: Leicester stunned Man City 5-2 at the Etihad Stadium in September 2020, but the Citizens claimed revenge with a 2-0 triumph at the King Power Stadium in April – courtesy of goals from Benjamin Mendy and Gabriel Jesus.

DStv and GOtv customers will also enjoy a range and depth of live football action from the Premier League, UEFA Champions League, Europa League as well as La Liga and Serie A.
