Arsenal vs Everton team news
Arteta has welcomed a number of internationals who missed out on the win in Germany, so it seems reasonable to assume the bulk of them will get at least some capacity.
Jesus will probably play a part and it will be interesting to see how closely involved William Saliba is. The Frenchman is expected to be part of the first-team set-up this season, but has yet to play a senior game for the club.
It is an important pre-season for Everton for Dominic Calvert-Lewin, a player who has scouted Arsenal before. The England forward was plagued by injury last time and was still able to empathize with Gareth Southgate’s thinking ahead of the 2022 World Cup.
Arsenal vs Everton Prediction
Again, it’s important not to put too much emphasis on pre-season friendlies, but Arsenal seem well placed to win. They mistreated Frank Lampard’s side on the final day of the season and have since welcomed a £45million forward to the club.
Arsenal win 2-1.
