What is at stake for Arsenal vs Borrussia Dortmund?

Arsenal have played just two pre-season matches since their Champions League final defeat to Paris Saint-Germain, with Mikel Arteta's side suffering a defeat to Real Betis in Dublin last time out.

The Gunners will be keen to end their summer preparations on a positive note before facing Manchester City in the Community Shield in the Welsh capital on August 16, while another Emirates Cup triumph would provide further encouragement ahead of the new campaign.

Piero Hincapie has joined Arsenal permanently from Bayer Leverkusen, while Illan Meslier and Christos Tzolis have also arrived in recent weeks.

All three have featured during pre-season and could make their first appearances in front of the home supporters at the Emirates this weekend.

Dortmund, meanwhile, have played four friendlies so far, taking on two German sides before travelling to Japan for matches against Cerezo Osaka and Tokyo.

Niko Kovac's side have won two of their four pre-season fixtures and will be looking to build momentum ahead of the new Bundesliga campaign, which begins with a Franz Beckenbauer Supercup clash against Vincent Kompany's Bayern Munich on August 22.
