Manchester United to play Arsenal in friendly at SoFi Stadium in July

Premier League rivals Manchester United and Arsenal will face off at SoFi Stadium on July 27 in the first game of a three-team, three-match preseason tour of the U.S. Liverpool, the current league leader, is the third team involved. The Reds will meet Arsenal at Philadelphia’s Lincoln Financial Field on July 31 before playing Manchester United on Aug. 3 in Columbia, S.C.

Arsenal was an easy choice for the SoFi matchup since Stan Kroenke, the team’s owner, also owns the Inglewood stadium. SoFi will also be the site of two group-play matches in this summer’s Copa América, with Brazil taking on the winner of a CONCACAF playoff on June 24 and Venezuela facing Mexico two days later.
