The Community Shield, or Charity Shield as some people may still know it, is held as the curtain raiser to the football season every year. The 2010 Community Shield is Chelsea v Arsenal.

The Premiership Champions, Chelsea, play the FA Cup winners, Arseanal, to get the season underway. You can place a Community Shield bet on a number of markets and you can compare Community Shield odds on each one. Chelsea should have too many big guns for Arsenal, whose performance in the recent Amsterdam tournament may have left them unprepared for this clash.

Paddy Power will refund all losing single bets on this match if Pires scores the last goal in 90 minutes.
