Arsenal meets Fiorentina in round 2 of International Champions Cup. The match will be played on Sunday, July 21st at Bank of America Stadium (Charlotte)
The Gunners played a couple of friendly matches before the start of the International Champions Cup. They played with Borham Wood, representing the National League, and American Colorado Rapids, representing MLS. Both meetings were played in a scoring way. A draw in the off-season opening match - 3: 3 was replaced by the hammering defeat of an American team - 0:3. The professionals left behind the experience of defeat in the Europa League final to Chelsea - 4:1 (do we all remember this “fun” match?) and started the New Life with a confident performance in the attacking line. Two matches were enough for the team to start in with a victory over Bayern (2:1) the current tournament. Someone will say that Bayern is not the same. Throw such thoughts out of your head. I watched that match and I could responsibly state that the Bavarians are potentially capable of playing on an equal footing with Barcelona and Manchester City.

In my opinion, Fiorentina, despite its last year’s sixteenth place, remains one of the few clubs in the Italian championship, which shows an interesting game. The team was frankly abandoned, but the new season gives new hopes to the club fans, which the Purples gladly confirm with the activity at the start of the ICC. The Florentines won two friendly matches. Val di Fassa (amateurs) lost with a 0:21 score. Real Vicenza, representatives of Lega Pro, managed to score - 1:6. As for the current tournament, the club started with a victory over Guadalajara - 2:1. Chivas is one of the most recognizable and titled clubs in Mexico, and a victory over it should be regarded as a successful performance.
Fiorentina appeals to me, but Arsenal has nothing more to be offered apart from my sympathy for Florence. Although I will not hurry. Both teams are creative in the attack and both will receive a chance for conversion of their attempts. I think that we will see at least three goals in the upcoming game.
Prediction for the match: Over 3.0 goals scored
