It’s extremely hard to predict pre-season friendlies, given they are usually a time for teams to experiment and both sides will be missing a number of key players.

That being said, Arsenal are arguably the favourites given their stronger overall squad, while they have faced higher-quality opposition in pre-season thus far.

The north Londoners defeated Premier League side AFC Bournemouth via a penalty shootout on Thursday while United lost to Norwegian side Rosenborg and then beat Scottish side Rangers.
