Liverpool will contest the 2019 Community Shield against Manchester City.

City’s success in both Saturday’s FA Cup final and the Premier League means the Reds, as runners-up in the top flight, are set to feature in the annual curtain-raiser at the beginning of the next campaign.

It will represent the club’s first participation in the one-off fixture since 2006, when Liverpool beat Chelsea 2-1 at the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff.

Full fixture and ticket details will be announced on Liverpoolfc.com in due course.
