The 2022 FA Community Shield was the 100th FA Community Shield, an annual football match played between the winners of the previous season's Premier League and the winners of the previous season's FA Cup. It was played on 30 July 2022, with Liverpool defeating Manchester City 3–1 for their 16th FA Community Shield title and the club's first in 16 years.

Due to the hosting of the UEFA Women's Euro 2022 final, the match took place away from the usual Wembley Stadium for the first time in 10 years, and was instead played at Shield holders Leicester City's King Power Stadium. With the match played at the much-reduced capacity of Leicester City's stadium, there were 28,545 spectators, the lowest number for a Charity Shield or Community Shield game (excluding the 2020 match which had no fans in attendance) since 23,988 watched Burnley beat Manchester City 1–0 at Maine Road in 1973.

Leicester City were the holders, having won the 2021 edition, but did not qualify for this match as they finished eighth in the Premier League and were knocked out in the FA Cup fourth round.

The game was televised live in the United Kingdom on ITV.
