Change isn’t always for the best; however, it may be just what the doctor ordered for the Serie A runners-up Azzurri. Star striker Edinson Cavani has left town but has been replaced by Real Madrid forward Gonzalo Higuain. Arsenal had their sights set on him to bolster their attack prior to his move to Napoli. The Italian side had the cash to burn and ultimately swayed the 25-year-old Argentinian with a $53 million payday.The changes don’t stop there, either. Manager Walter Mazzarri is out, and Rafa Benitez has taken the reins. Arsenal is well versed with the former headman of rival Chelsea. The Blues edged them into third place in the Premier League a season ago. Tomorrow, Chelsea vs AC Milan will be played in International Champions Cup.
While it will certainly be a new club on the pitch for Napoli on Saturday, will they be better than what we’ve seen from them in the past? If you want lo watch Arsenal live, you should better get your Arsenal tickets in advance.

It’s hard to pick against the hosts in this one, so let’s not go in that direction. Manager Arsene Wenger will likely have his team ready to perform well at this big kickoff event. Couple that focus with a surely sold-out Emirates and the cards will truly be stacked against the new-look Napoli side.
Expect a very challenging and tight match for the Gunners, but ultimately a narrow victory will inspire the home crowd heading into their Sunday match against Galatasaray.
