Community Shield Betting Tips – Man Utd v Wigan Prediction

The Community Shield takes place this weekend between Manchester United and Wigna Athletic and we have got some early betting tips for the season opener.

Traditionally curtailed as the season’s curtain raiser the Community Shield this season pits together Premier League winners Man United with F.A Cup winners and now Championship side Wigan.

Wigan’s heroic win in the F.A Cup final over Manchester City was one of the greatest cup final shocks in English football history and their fans will once again relish another day out at Wembley, while David Moyes and Manchester United will want to get back to winning ways after a tough pre-season both on and off the pitch.

The match on Sunday looks set to be dominated by United and the bookies make them the 3/10 (Titan Bet) favourites to win the match in 90 minutes. The draw is 5/1 (Bet365) and Wigan are 12/1 at Sky Bet to cause another Wembley shock.

Manchester United look sure to be without Wayne Rooney as his continued transfer saga rolls on but Robin Van Persie will take his place in the starting line-up and can get his season underway with the first goal of the match here. He is 3/1 (William Hill) to score the first goal of the match and that is a bet hard to ignore given that Van Persie will be employed right up front against Wigan.

It is hard to see another Wembley fairytail for Wigan and they have a retched record against United, apart from the 1-0 win they picked up at the end of the 2011/12 season on the way to their great escape they have lost seven matches without scoring a goal, shipping 29 goals on the way. That makes a bet on Manchester United to win to nil at odds of 10/11 (William Hill) a must bet.
