Manchester United are the most successful club in the history of the FA Community Shield, having won the competition 21 times.
The Red Devils became the first club to lift the trophy when they defeated Queens Park Rangers in the inaugural edition in 1908.
The first meeting between the two sides ended in a 1-1 draw on April 27, 1908, forcing a replay several months later.
Manchester United returned to face QPR at the end of August and produced a dominant performance, securing a 4-0 victory to claim the first Charity Shield trophy.
