Defending Singapore Premier League (SPL) champions Albirex Niigata will play last season's runners-up Home United as they kick off the upcoming local football season with the Community Shield showdown on Feb 23 at Jalan Besar.
From 2014 to 2018, the Community Shield also doubled up as a league match. But no league points will be up for grabs in this fixture this year.
Albirex are defending champions from 2016 to 2018, while Home United have never won the competition, losing in 2008, 2012 and 2014.
The SPL will start on March 2 with Geylang International hosting Albirex at Our Tampines Hub and Young Lions taking on Balestier Khalsa at Jalan Besar.
