After the specifics for this year's Community Shield were confirmed, Liverpool will face Man City in their first game of the 2022/23 season.
The Reds will face the reigning Premier League champions in the customary season opener after winning the FA Cup. However, the game will be played at Leicester City's King Power Stadium, denying Jurgen Klopp's side a fourth trip to Wembley this calendar year.
The game will be played on Saturday, July 30 at 5 p.m., due to the Women's Euro 2022 final being staged at Wembley on the same weekend.
As a result of being held away from the home of English football for the first time since 2012, when Villa Park hosted the match, ticket information will be released in due course.
Liverpool has won the Community Shield 15 times, the most recent victory being in 2006 when they defeated Chelsea. Meanwhile, during Klopp's tenure as manager, they have lost the final twice, to Arsenal in 2020 and Man City in 2019.
After defeating Man City 1-0 in last year's final, Leicester City are the current champions.
