Before the start of the U.S. tour, the team played two friendly matches, and both ended in a 1:1 draw. They first played against Watford, then in Germany against Nuremberg.
The first overseas match brought a more positive outcome. With a score of 5:0, Arsenal beat the MLS All-Star team. Gabriel Jesus opened the scoring in the 5th minute. Leandro Trossard doubled the lead before the break. Jorginho, Martinelli, and Kai Havertz scored in the second half.
In addition to Havertz from Chelsea, Arsenal has already signed Ajax defender Jurrien Timber and West Ham midfielder Declan Rice this summer. With Arsenal paying over €100m for the latter, Rice has become the most expensive English footballer in history.
Manchester United
Unlike Arsenal, Manchester United will play their first game in the United States. But the Mancunians have had time to travel around Europe. First, they traveled to Oslo, where they beat Leeds 1:0. Then they played in Edinburgh with French Lyon and won 2:0. It should be noted that all the goals in these matches team Erik ten Hague scored in the second half.
The main changes in the Man United squad at the current moment of the off-season are in the goalkeeper line. David De Gea has left Manchester, and in his place, Andre Onana was taken from Inter. We will also mention the signing of Chelsea attacking midfielder Mason Mount and the expired contracts and loan agreements of Axel Tuanzebe, Phil John, Marcel Sabitzer, and Wout Weghorst.
Expert Betting Tips
In recent head-to-head meetings, particularly in both games last season, the rivals made a real goal show. The same may happen this time. The match is an exhibition match, which means that the teams not only have no reason to play cautiously, but they also need to show bright football to better advertise English football. We will bet on the total over here. And we'll also take Arsenal's victory.
