FOOTBALL fans have been left facing travel chaos ahead of the Community Shield.
Arsenal take on Treble winners Manchester City in today's clash at Wembley – set to kick off at 4pm.
However, travelling fans have been left with a nightmare scenario after it came to light that Wembley Central Station is CLOSED.
The closure is due to planned engineering works affecting the Bakerloo and London Overground lines.
Wembley Stadium can hold 90,000 people.
And with Arsenal and Man City both selling out their respective ticket allocations, the area is sure to be packed.

According to the TfL website, rail replacement services have been laid on to ensure fans can still make it to the station ahead of the game.
With the closure there is no service between Stonebridge Park and Harrow and Wealdstone on the Bakerloo line.
Meanwhile, the Overground line has no service between Willesden Junction and Watford Junction.
The special bus route sees the 718 run from Stonebridge Park all the way through to Watford Junction.
