The International Champions Cup is in full gear now, and team playing around the world are giving their fans a glimpse of what to expect from them in the 2018-19 season.

Two of those teams that fans will be eager to watch are Arsenal and PSG. Both sides will have new coaches at the helm, and this game will give them both a chance to look at their options for the upcoming season.

Curiously, Unai Emery will be eager to show his worth against his former side. The Spaniard was sacked by PSG after his failure to win the UEFA Champions League with them. Now, Arsenal is giving him all the tools to become a contender in the Premier League, the UEFA Europa League and FA Cup, and this tournament will give them a good idea on where the team needs to add more talent.

Regarding PSG, coach Thomas Tuchel will not have most of his big names around, mainly because Neymar and Kylian Mbappé were granted a few extra days off to recover from their World Cup performances. Edinson Cavani, Angel Di Maria and Gianluigi Buffon will be the team's leaders during their ICC campaign.
