International cups are a highlight for most teams. Both Arsenal and Monaco are looking forward to this Emirates Cup fight to decide who advances from the Final.
Monaco have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 1400 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.
This could be an engrossing fixture with lots of action and excitement as both contenders are well recovered since they last ran out on the pitch. Let's get started!
Arsenal form and stats
Arsenal have performed here at Emirates Stadium this season with 14 wins from 19 Premier League matches. Some points have been lost, as they have drawn 3 games and lost 2.
Arsenal are returning here after visiting MLS All-Stars in a MLS All-Star fixture and winning with a 5-0 scoreline.
Before that game, a nice away win at MLS All-Stars. A MLS All-Star match.
There's a new fixture coming up fairly quickly for Arsenal, as the Community Shield home game vs Manchester City is only four days away.
Arsenal are showing their attacking force in their league home games this season, scoring more than 2,5 goals per game on average (53 goals in 19 games). Arsenal have conceded 25 in these home matches.
Monaco form and stats
10 wins, 5 draws and 4 losses. That’s the product of Monaco playing as the away team in the Ligue 1 this season.
Monaco have lots to to set right after their surprise loss (1-2) to Toulouse in their previous outing, played in front of their own supporters. It's a concern for Monaco that their goalie Nübel made six saves in the Toulouse game, but still were unable to prevent a loss. Midfield player Camara was the top player of the team with a match rating of 7.85/10. Camara hit two key passes, dribled past the opponent 1 of 1 times and had 68 successful passes (of 75 total).
A loss against Toulouse was the result prior to that, in a Ligue 1 home game.Monaco are not goal shy away from home in the league, finding the net 33 times in 19 away games so far. As opposed to that, Monaco have seen the ball go into their own net 25 times on the road.
Head 2 Head
