Al-Nasr vs Arsenal prediction and live stream: How to watch for free online, tickets, line-ups, kick-off time

Al-Nasr vs Arsenal
Venue: Al Maktoum Stadium, Dubai
Date: Tuesday, 26 March
Kick-off: 1:10pm GMT, today

Arsenal take on Al-Nasr Dubai SC in today's friendly contest to mark the opening of the newly-built Al Maktoum Stadium.

The Gunners have taken a strong squad to Dubai for a five-day warm-weather training camp ahead of the final season run-in.

Alexandre Lacazette, Mesut Ozil and Bernd Leno are among those expected to feature against the UAE Pro-League side.

Former Manchester City and West Ham striker Alvaro Negredo could line up against Unai Emery's side having signed a two-year deal with the Dubai club last September.

Arsenal's last competitive game was their Europa League victory over Rennes on March 14, with the club not returning to domestic action until April 1 - at home to Newcastle.


Team news

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, Granit Xhaka and Sokratis are among those still on international duty this week but Emery has a strong squad at his disposal.

Aaron Ramsey withdrew from the Wales squad on Saturday with a thigh problem but has returned to north London for treatment, with hope he will recover in time for the visit of Rafa Benitez's side.

Charlie Gilmour and Xavier Amaechi are among the young Gunners who could start.

Possible Arsenal team to face Al-Nasr: Leno, Jenkinson, Mavropanos, Mustafi, Thompson, Maitland-Niles, Gilmour, Suarez, Ozil, Amaechi, Lacazette


Al-Nasr vs Arsenal tickets

TV channel and live stream, and online coverage

A free digital membership will be required to watch the game.


Prediction: Al-Nasr 0-3 Arsenal

While Emery will consider the trip a success if every player returns fit and refreshed for the run-in, the Arsenal boss will still want to see a strong performance.

With the likes of Mesut Ozil also playing to impress, expect goals from the Gunners.
