Arsenal will be flying to California tonight to start their new pre-season tour of the United States at Dignity Health Sports Park in Los Angeles. The team is eager to start off strong after coming so close to winning the Premier League title last season. They had a good start by defeating Leyton Orient 2-0 in their first friendly match at London Colney last weekend, with goals from Emile Smith Rowe and Gabriel Jesus.
Mikel Arteta will be missing several key players as they begin their three-game tour in America. Declan Rice and Bukayo Saka, who played in Euro 2024, are now on vacation. Despite their absence, Arteta is still optimistic about winning their upcoming match against the MLS team Los Angeles Galaxy. They will face tougher challenges against Manchester United and Liverpool in the following week.
Bournemouth is currently in the United States playing two matches. They recently tied 1-1 with third-tier Wrexham in Santa Barbara, with Marcos Senesi scoring the equalizer in the second half.
