Expectations are high among Arsenal fans for the new season, as Arteta will not have any European football to contend with as he bids to pull together a team capable of challenging for the top four once again.

However, their preparations for the new season could hardly have kicked off in a worse way, as Hibs duo Daniel MacKay and Martin Boyle both found the back of the net against a makeshift Gunners team before Emile Smith Rowe added nothing more than a consolation effort in the 82nd minute.

Arsenal fans ought not to read too much into a pre-season defeat – especially with Arteta handing several up-and-coming starlets the chance to impress – but some of the same old problems were evident, as Arsenal were undone by a set piece and were lacking a clinical edge throughout the 90 minutes.

This is the true meaning of a friendly encounter between two teams who look at one another with a sense of fondness, but both managers will be demanding more after somewhat demoralising defeats.As always, heavy rotation can be expected on both ends, and we are ultimately struggling to see a clear winner in this pre-season battle.

Arsenal’s Bernd Leno, Granit Xhaka and Bukayo Saka are taking extended breaks following their Euro 2020 exploits, but Kieran Tierney is training with the squad in his homeland and may be involved at some stage. Gabriel Martinelli will be representing Brazil at the Tokyo Olympics, but Gabriel Magalhaes was forced to withdraw from the Games due to a knee injury.

Goalkeeper Allan McGregor was the only member of the Rangers XI to enjoy a full 90-minute run-out in their defeat to Tranmere, while Nikola Katic and Ryan Jack continue to recover from injuries. New arrival Fashion Sakala is still waiting to link up with the team and was not involved against Tranmere, while Alfredo Morelos remains on a break following his Copa America exploits with Colombia.
