Mikel Arteta and Arne Slot face each other for the first time on Wednesday as Arsenal take on Liverpool in the United States.
The two Premier League heavyweights meet in Philadelphia ahead of the Premier League season kicking off in a few weeks time. The Gunners have already played Bournemouth and Manchester United in the US and will fly back to London following the match with the Reds.
Liverpool, meanwhile, played their first friendly against Real Betis at the weekend and still have a fixture against Manchester United to look forward to on Sunday. Both the north Londoners and the Merseysiders will see the game at Lincoln Financial Field as the perfect opportunity to get minutes in the legs ahead of what promises to be a gruelling season.
It will also be an opportunity for one team to make a statement. Both Arsenal and Liverpool will want to challenge Manchester City for the Premier League title next season and the game represents a chance for Arteta and Slot to get one over on their counterpart.
