Liverpool will seek to soothe their sorrows after losing the Community Shield to Crystal Palace by winning the opening match. Meanwhile, the visiting team will seek to deepen the wounds of Mohamed Salah and his teammates by leaving Anfield with at least a draw.

In a stunning surprise, Crystal Palace, nicknamed the “Eagles of London,” won the Community Shield for the first time in their history after defeating Liverpool 3-2 on penalties at Wembley Stadium, after the match ended in a 2-2 draw after regulation time.

During the penalty shootout, Mohamed Salah failed to score the first penalty, despite his excellent penalty takers, and missed the target, resulting in Liverpool’s first title of the season.

The Sky Blues also aspire to strengthen their position in the race for Champions League qualification before the end of the season.

Manchester City will play their final match of the season at the Etihad Stadium, presenting a valuable opportunity to make amends to their fans after suffering a heavy defeat in the FA Cup final, when they lost 1-0 to Crystal Palace.

The match will be a real test of the team’s resolve, especially with the competition for Champions League qualification places intensifying. City is only one point away from fourth place, with a game in hand that could give them a decisive advantage.

Date, kick-off time:
Man City vs Bournemouth is scheduled for an 8pm BST kick-off tonight, Tuesday, May 20, 2025.

Manchester United is in 14th place with 38 points before the start of the round, while Bournemouth is in 8th place with 49 points.

United is looking to return to winning ways in the English Premier League at Bournemouth’s expense, especially since the team has not won in its last four matches, having drawn one and lost three, the last of which was a 1-0 defeat to Wolverhampton.

Rubén Amorim, Manchester United’s manager, is looking to achieve a victory to restore confidence before the anticipated European match against Athletic Bilbao in the first leg of the Europa League semi-final next Thursday.

Amorim is looking to win the Europa League title, salvage Manchester United’s season, and make up for the loss to his fans after his team’s failure in all domestic competitions in England.

Manchester United lost the first leg 3-0 to Bournemouth and are aiming to exact revenge on the hosts in today’s match, despite the difficulty of the encounter, especially as the latter are seeking a European spot with five rounds remaining in the English Premier League.

Speaking about the match against Bournemouth, Amorim highlighted the importance of achieving victory before the European match against Bilbao, especially since the team suffered a defeat to Wolverhampton Wanderers last Sunday. He explained that he will choose the best possible lineup.

The Portuguese coach said, “We must have a sense of the importance of every game we play. We need to win every game, and it is important that everyone has a sense of the importance of not losing.”

He added, “Our current situation is no secret, but we want to go into this match with the best possible lineup. We have had a full week to prepare for the match, and some players did not participate against Wolverhampton, so I will try to manage the match in a way that will qualify us to win.”

Date, kick-off time:
