Arsenal will continue their preparations for the new season against Unai Emery's former club PSG on Saturday
The Gunners are in Singapore for the latest leg of their pre-season schedule, having faced Atletico Madrid on Thursday
They lost that one on penalties and now take on the French champions in the International Champions Cup
Arsenal welcome back Mesut Ozil for the first time this summer with Mohamed Elneny and Alex Iwobi also starting
PSG remain without a host of their big names with Neymar, Kylian Mbappe and Edinson Cavani all absent
Follow all the action from Singapore below. Arsenal: Leno, Bellerin, Sokratis, Mustafi, Kolasinac, Guendouzi, Elneny, Ozil, Mkhitaryan, Iwobi, Aubameyang Subs: Cech, Martinez, Holding, Chambers, Mavropanos, Maitland-Niles, Ramsey, Nelson, Osei-Tutu, Willock, Nketiah, Perez, Lacazette
PSG: Buffon, Georgen, Rimane, Nsoki, Mbe Soh, Diarra, Berndede, Rabiot, Toufiqui, Nkunku, Weah Subs: Trapp, Lo Celso, Sissako, Zagre, Fressange, Cibois, Bahebeck, PostolachiKey EventsGOOOAAAALLLL12:5236mins There is a Mexican wave travelling around the stadium
It hasn't been dull though this. The Gunners are stroking the ball around nicely, this is probably the longest they have kept the ball so far
Not much, or any, of a press from the French.33mins PSG are looking very tired all of a sudden, which isn't a massive surprise
Going forward they have lost their sting. Leno has looked very assured and has used his supple wrist to deny a long range effort
29mins Another Arsenal chance, another quick counter involving Aubameyang. A ball down the middle is chased down, the Gabonese turns a defender in two but he shoots straight at Buffon
On this basis the Gunners are going to be VERY dangerous going forward this season
26mins Toufiqui on the right again cutting in. And again swings one towards goal, but again he doesn't quite bend enough
Getting closer though.23mins There's that Arsenal pace again. Iwobi this time gets into a great position and really should score
But he hits straight at Buffon and the ball tricks behind.13:02Ozil celebrates20mins Very open now
A lot more adventurous long passes with more success. Ozil seems to be at the middle of all of Arsenal's best moments
16mins All of a sudden Aubameyang's speed is causing massive problems. A pass is slightly too long for him this time though
Just before the goal, Mustafi had a head which only just went side. The pressure has been slowing building for the Gunners
12:52KEY EVENTGOOOAAAALLLL OZILLLLLLL!!! That's one way to shut down the haters. Aubameyang counters with pace and squares to a completely free Ozil
Solid low finish and Arsenal lead.9mins Not too far away from Toufiqui. In fact that would have been an incredible goal, after cutting in from the left wing and unleashing from the edge of the area
The Gunners still not settled as an attacking pack.12:465mins Even in such a short amount of time Weah has proved a thorn in the Arsenal defence
The youngster, and son of legend George, possesses great pace and is timing his runs well
He's received the ball too wide so far but he will be a threat. In fact Leno is forced quickly off his line to deny him
2mins Scrappy start. The PSG youngsters look nervy with a couple of miss placed passes
The French side have seen more of the ball in the opening moments. They are getting most joy down the right flank
PEEEEEEP! Ref Chan Rong blows the whistle. And Arsenal kick us off.12:36 Out come the two sets of players
The handshakes are done and we are almost ready for kick off.12:35 It looks like we are running slightly behind
The players are currently in the tunnel. Mesut Ozil has the armband for the Gunners
12:30 Almost ready for kick off in Singapore. The Gunners will be in their light blue shirt
12:09 That's right Mesut Ozil is Arsenal's captain today. It is the German's first outing of pre-season
But with Laurent Koscielny injured and doubts over Aaron Ramsey's future, could he be handed the captaincy on a regular basis?11:4911:42PSG team Here is the PSG team
Not too many familiar faces. Gigi Buffon is in goal while there are also starts for Adrien Rabiot and Lassana Diarra
George Weah's son Timothy is also in the line-up. PSG: Buffon, Georgen, Rimane, Nsoki, Mbe Soh, Diarra, Berndede, Rabiot, Toufiqui, Nkunku, Weah Subs: Trapp, Lo Celso, Sissako, Zagre, Fressange, Cibois, Bahebeck, Postolachi11:38 Unai Emery's tactics appear to show his Arsenal team will play a brand of football very similar to the one he utilised at Paris Saint-Germain
The Spaniard was always expected to introduce a modern pressing style to this Gunners side, after he spoke out about his philosophy upon being appointed
Emery recently showed off his tactics board on the Arsenal training ground, and it appears he has drawn up a rather interesting formation
At Paris Saint-Germain the Spaniard often played a 4-1-4-1 system that enabled his side to attack with numbers, but also overcrowd the midfield when defending
It doesn't look as if Arsenal will copy this exactly, but it does appear as if they will play a version of it - a 4-1-2-2-1, or perhaps more recognisable as a 4-3-3

The 17-year-old - who turns 18 on Saturday - first caught the eye in the Gunners' friendly victory over Boreham Wood, prompting supporters to draw comparisons with Manchester City midfielder Kevin De Bruyne
Unai Emery then invited Smith Rowe to join the first team on their tour of Asia, and he was selected to start the Gunners' International Champions Cup clash with Atletico Madrid
The teenager showed no nerves in lining up against such imposing opposition and even got himself on the scoresheet with a wonderful long-range strike after worming his way through the Atletico defence
Smith Rowe has spoken out about his sudden rise to stardom this summer, and has heaped praise on his Arsenal team-mates - two in particular - who have helped his transition from academy prospect to possible first-team starter
"I've trained with the senior team before but this is my only real chance that I've had so far
[Alexandre] Lacazette and [Pierre-Emerick] Aubameyang have looked out for me, they're so funny and so welcoming
"09:10Welcome Unai Emery hopes he'll be given the support at Arsenal that he lost at Paris Saint-Germain following Neymar's arrival
The Spaniard left PSG in the summer after leading them to the treble last season
And in an interview with Spanish website The Tactical Room, published in May, he said: "In each club you must know what role you play and what role you assign to the rest of the group
"My opinion is that at PSG the leader is called Neymar. "This is a process that still needs a little bit of time to consolidate
In Manchester City, the chief is Pep [Guardiola]. At PSG, the leader must be Neymar
" Emery, whose Arsenal side take on PSG in their second International Champions Cup match, was asked about his comments and if he believes he will get more support at his new home
He said: "I don't have the memory of how I said that, but I have my idea, my way, and the support is here for me to work with the same mentality I wanted in all my career
"To give to the team a good spirit and a good energy with very good quality players
