Arsenal and Manchester United will meet in a pre-season friendly this weekend.
Historic rivals, the two English giants face-off as part of the Premier League Summer Series across the pond as both Mikel Arteta and Erik ten Hag continue pre-season preparations.
The MeLife Stadium in New Jersey will host one of the most evocative fixtures English football has to offer and plenty of new faces will be on show.
Declan Rice, Jurrien Timber and Kai Havertz could all play for the Gunners, while Mason Mount and Andre Onana could do so for United.
Arsenal vs Manchester United team news
Arteta played all of his new signings during the win over MLS All-Stars earlier this week and could name Kai Havertz, Jurrien Timber and Declan Rice in his starting XI for the first time.
Emile Smith Rowe and Thomas Partey are also available, though Leandro Trossard picked up a slight knock so could be rested.
United are set to welcome back their host of international players who have not yet featured in pre-season, such as Marcus Rashford and Bruno Fernandes.
After jetting Andre Onana out to the US, the new signing may make his debut. Tyrell Malacia is injured and Fred absent due to a personal issue.
New signings Jurrien Timber and Declan Rice were on the bench in midweek so may come into the starting XI against United, and Folarin Balogun will hope for a chance to impress amid links with Inter Milan.
Predicted Arsenal XI: Ramsdale; Timber, Saliba, Gabriel, Tomiyasu; Odegaard, Rice, Havertz; Marquinhos, Balogun, Martinelli
Absent: Nelson, Turner, Lokonga, Cedric, Pepe
Doubt: Smith Rowe, Trossard, Partey, Zinchenko, Elneny
Time and date: 10pm BST, Saturday July 22, 2023
Venue: MetLife Stadium
