Premier League champions Leicester City face FA Cup winners Manchester United in the Community Shield at Wembley on Sunday afternoon in what will be Jose Mourinho’s first competitive match in charge of the Red Devils.

In one of the biggest shocks in the history of football, the Foxes finished top of the pile last term – 10 points ahead of second-placed Arsenal – to win their first top-flight title in their 132-year history.

Algerian winger Riyad Mahrez was one of the club’s heroes, scoring 17 Premier League goals, and he remains at the King Power Stadium despite being heavily linked with a move to Premier League rivals Arsenal this summer.

He will come up against United new boy Henrikh Mkhitaryan at Wembley, with the attacking midfielder enjoying a successful campaign with Borussia Dortmund, before making the switch to Old Trafford for the upcoming season.

Shoot looks at how the duo match-up before their meeting in the capital on Sunday…
