Preview of the Gunners’ game vs Lazio
Sky Sports' football editors provide an in-depth look at the upcoming Arsenal vs Lazio clash
- Arsenal take on Lazio this Saturday, August 4, in their final game of the summer pre-season campaign at the Friends Arena in Stockholm
"Unai Emery may have completed his summer business - saying after the International Champions Cup win over Chelsea in midweek he was happy with his squad - and will wrap-up their preparations for next weekend's Premier League opener with Manchester City in Sweden.
"Lazio, their opponents, came fifth in Serie A last season after being edged out of a Champions League spot by Inter Milan on the final day of the campaign.
"The Gunners were originally due to face Sevilla but the Spanish side pulled out with what Arsenal referred to as "scheduling issues", having played the second leg of their second qualifying round tie in the Europa League on Thursday.
"And their opponents will face a side who are yet to taste normal-time defeat in pre-season under Emery so far - losing only to Atletico Madrid on penalties in their first game of the ICC."
