Arsenal will meet Lyon in the Emirates Cup today in a much awaited match. This will also act as the last game that Arsenal will play ahead of the new season which will commence next week.
There are very many reasons as to why Arsenal will beat Lyon and win the Emirates Cup. Arsenal has been very sharp during this pre-season and the club only lost one match, this was against Liverpool back in the US.
The last game that Arsenal played, the club beat last season’s unbeaten Bundesliga Champions, Bayern Leverkusen. Arsenal beat Bayer Leverkusen 4-1. This is a clear indication that, the players ae in high spirits and they will do their best in order to win that game.
Arsenal will also win this game because, the game will be played at the Emirates Stadium. This is the home stadium of Arsenal and the players are very well conversant with that pitch. It is almost nearly impossible to defeat Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium.
Arsenal will also beat Lyon because, of the history that the two clubs have. The last game that the two clubs had, Arsenal beat Lyon 3-0 back in 2022. The three goals were scored by Gabriel Magalhaes, Eddie Nketiah and Fabio Vieira.
Arsenal will also beat Lyon because, the club has a very solid defense that cannot allow the Lyon strikers to score any goal. The defense was rated the best in the Premier League last season. The partnership of Gabriel Magalhaes and William Saliba has been very solid and they will surely form another solid defence again.
Mikel Arteta also has a very good squad depth and he has very good players who can play in the first team and also very good reserve players.
Arsenal has also been very lethal ever since they lost the Premier League title to Manchester City. Edu Gasper has even gone ahead and made another recruitment in Riccardo Calafiori who will battle it out with Oleksandr Zinchenko.
