class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>Despite missing some of their biggest names, Al Hain-Cole is backing the Stars and Stripes to begin their Gold Cup campaign with a big win in Kansas

USA will be hoping to get their Gold Cup campaign off to a winning start when they take on Haiti in Kansas City on Sunday.

The Stars and Stripes are fresh from winning the inaugural CONCACAF Nations League, beating Mexico 3-2 after extra time in last month’s final.

USA vs Haiti latest odds

Unbeaten in their last five matches against this opposition, the USMNT are 1/5 (1.20) favourites with bet365 to get up and running with a victory at Children’s Mercy Park.

Jean Jacques Pierre’s Haiti qualified for this competition after beating St Vincent and the Grenadines 6-1 and Bermuda 4-1 but are 11/1 (12.00) outsiders to pull off a shock victory here.

Two of the last three meetings between this duo have resulted in draws, and you can get odds of 17/4 (5.75) on them cancelling each other out once again.

USA vs Haiti team news

The hosts have called up a mainly domestically-based squad for this competition, allowing star players such as Sergino Dest, Weston McKennnie and Christian Pulisic a summer break, potentially with an eye on next year’s World Cup, at Qatar 2022.

Guingamp striker Frantzdy Pierrot is the man to watch for Les Grenadiers, having scored nine times in his last 10 international matches – grabbing four goals in the two recent qualifiers.

USA vs Haiti preview

While they may be without some of their most famous names, Gregg Berhalter’s team still boasts a strong mix of youthful and experienced players who will be keen to force their way into the first team once World Cup qualification comes around.

Indeed, it was a similar team to the one likely to line up in Kansas on Sunday that thrashed Trinidad and Tobago 7-0 in a friendly back in February, when all of the goals were scored by MLS players.

They will therefore back themselves to see off a visiting team that has achieved strong results against Caribbean minnows but were brushed aside by Canada in last month’s World Cup qualifiers – losing 1-0 at home and 3-0 away.

USA vs Haiti tips & predictions

With home advantage on their side, the USMNT look well worth backing at 7/4 (2.75) to prove their quality by beating Haiti by at least three goals in their Group B opener.

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>With the likes of Aubameyang and Lacazette in the squad, Al Hain-Cole expects the Gunners to ease to victory over Ross' men

Arsenal get their pre-season preparations under way with a friendly match against Hibernian at Easter Road on Tuesday.

Mikel Arteta endured a difficult first full campaign at the helm, overseeing a disappointing eighth-placed finish in the Premier League and missing out on European qualification for the first time in 25 years.

Hibernian vs Arsenal latest odds

However, Arsenal are 11/20 (1.55) favourites with bet365 to start raising expectations for the upcoming campaign by coming out on top in Edinburgh.

In contrast, Hibs recorded an impressive third-place finish in last season’s SPL – their best top-flight performance since 2005 – and can be backed at 4/1 (5.00) to pull off an upset here.

The last meeting between this duo resulted in a 2-2 draw way back in 1955, and you can get odds of 3/1 (4.00) on them cancelling each other out once again.

Hibernian vs Arsenal team news

Christian Doidge is unavailable as he continues to recover from Covid-19, while new signing Daniel Mackay is unlikely to feature due to a knock.

As well as several youngsters, the travelling squad includes experienced players such as Hector Bellerin, Cedric Soares, Sead Kolasinac, Pablo Mari, Thomas Partey, Emile Smith Rowe, Joe Willock, Nicolas Pepe, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Alexandre Lacazette.

Hibernian vs Arsenal preview

Although their final league position was well below expectations, the Gunners actually were one of the top performing teams in terms of points per game during the second half of the Premier League season and finished with five successive wins.

No doubt eager to pick up where they left off here, the strength of line-up at their disposal should see them get off to a comfortable winning start against Jack Ross’ men.

Indeed, having suffered a 1-0 friendly defeat against League One side Accrington Stanley last week, it is hard to see Hibs competing with their star-studded opponents here.

Hibernian vs Arsenal predictions

Instead, odds of 7/5 (2.40) seem generous on Arsenal easing to victory by at least two clear goals in the Scottish capital on Tuesday.

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>El Tri were held to a frustrating 0-0 draw in their Gold Cup opener, and Al Hain-Cole expects another tough game against Loredo's men

Mexico will be determined to get their Gold Cup campaign up and running when they take on Guatemala in Dallas on Wednesday.

El Tri got off to a frustrating start in their opening Group A tie, being held to a goalless draw by Trinidad and Tobago.

Guatemala vs Mexico latest odds

However, Mexico are huge 1/14 (1.07) favourites with bet365 to bounce back by coming out on top at the Cotton Bowl.

Rafael Loredo’s Guatemala were beaten 2-0 by El Salvador in their first game and are lengthy 14/1 (15.00) outsiders to pull off a shock win against the eight-times champions.

The last Gold Cup meeting between this duo resulted in a 0-0 draw back in 2015, and you can get odds of 8/1 (9.00) on them cancelling each other out once again in this one.

Guatemala vs Mexico team news

Jorge Aparicio and Alejandro Galindo are in the squad after being recalled following suspension for indiscipline, while Kevin Moscoso is available once again following Covid-19.

Hirving Lozano has been ruled out for the rest of the tournament after suffering a serious head injury in the draw with Trinidad and Tobago, with Efrain Alvarez likely to take his position on the left of the front three.

Guatemala vs Mexico preview

Losing the inspirational Lozano in just the 18th minute really set the tone for Gerardo Martino’s team in what became an extremely frustrating 90 minutes against a doggedly defensive opponent.

Unfortunately, they could be in for more of the same against Los Chapines, who are only taking part in this tournament after stepping in for Curacao following a Covid-19 outbreak on the eve of the first match.

Having failed to score in three of their last five matches, it is hard to see the underdogs posing much threat to a defence that has kept seven clean sheets in the last 10 matches.

However, Mexico have developed a habit of struggling to break down stubborn CONCACAF opposition recently, drawing blanks against Costa Rica, Honduras and Trinidad and Tobago within the last six fixtures.

Guatemala vs Mexico predictions

With Guatemala sure to sit deep, odds of 5/6 (1.83) look like solid value on under 3.5 goals being scored for the sixth successive meeting between this pair.

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>Despite their slow start to the Gold Cup, Al Hain-Cole is backing the Stars and Stripes to ease to victory over Bocaly's out-of-practice team

USA will be hoping to extend their winning start to the Gold Cup when they take on Martinique at Children’s Mercy Park on Thursday.

Gregg Berhalter’s men failed to convince in their opening Group B game against Haiti, running out narrow 1-0 winners in a largely frustrating display.

Martinique vs USA latest odds

Nevertheless, USMNT are overwhelming 1/16 (1.06) favourites with bet365 to make it six points from six by coming out on top in Kansas.

Martinique were beaten 4-1 by Canada in their opener but can be backed at 25/1 (26.00) to pull off a huge upset with a win or 8/1 (9.00) to grind out an impressive draw.

Martinique vs USA team news

Paul Arriola will be assessed after being forced off with a hamstring injury against Haiti, while Reggie Cannon is also doubtful with a hamstring issue that caused him to miss that clash altogether.

The guests are likely to stick with the same line-up that took on Canada, with former France Under-21 striker Emmanuel Riviere leading the line in attack.

Martinique vs USA preview

Having fielded a rather inexperienced XI after allowing their star players a summer break following last month’s CONCACAF Nations League victory, it is perhaps unsurprising that the Stars and Stripes struggled for fluidity in their opener.

However, their teething problems are relatively minor in comparison to Mario Bocaly’s team, which doesn’t take part in FIFA-organised competitions and therefore hadn’t played a game in almost two years prior to the Canada defeat.

It is therefore understandable that the French overseas territory conceded four goals and made numerous sloppy errors in that game, failing to take advantage of Riviere’s early opener.

Another similar display is sure to be punished by a USA team that can only improve with each game, particularly with home advantage on their side.

Martinique vs USA predictions

In fact, odds of 10/11 (1.91) look like solid value on a Martinique squad made up mostly of semi-pro players from the domestic league losing out once again in another match featuring over 3.5 goals.

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>Having struggled for cutting edge in their opening pre-season friendly, Al Hain-Cole expects more frustration for the Gunners against Gerrard's men

Arsenal will be hoping to bounce back from defeat when they travel to Ibrox to take on Rangers in their second pre-season friendly of the summer on Saturday.

The Gunners were surprisingly beaten by Hibs in their opening warm-up game in midweek, going down 2-1 against last season’s third-placed SPL outfit.

Rangers vs Arsenal latest odds

However, Arsenal are 10/11 (1.91)  favourites with bet365 to put that behind them by coming out on top over reigning Scottish champions Rangers.

Steven Gerrard’s men lost 1-0 to League Two side Tranmere Rovers in last weekend’s exhibition match but can be backed at 12/5 (3.40) to raise the spirits with a big win and 11/5 (3.20) to claim a creditable draw.

Rangers vs Arsenal team news

New signing Nuno Tavares should be in line to make his first start since joining from Benfica, while Joe Willock will be assessed after missing the Hibs clash due to a minor injury.

Nikola Katic and Ryan Jack will both face late fitness tests and Alfredo Morelos is still on holiday following his involvement in the Copa America, although Fashion Sakala will be hoping to make his debut after joining from Oostende.

Rangers vs Arsenal preview

Having struggled to find their way past the Hibs defence in a frustrating performance in midweek, Mikel Arteta’s team should be in for an even sterner test on his return to the club where he spent two successful years as a player.

Indeed, the Gers won all 19 of their home games at Ibrox during last season’s unbeaten league campaign, as well as equalling the league record of 26 clean sheets and conceding a record low 13 goals in their 38 SPL fixtures.

However, having started their pre-season with a narrow 1-0 win over Partick Thistle followed by a 1-0 defeat at Tranmere, the hosts may struggle to offer too much in terms of attacking threat themselves.

Rangers vs Arsenal predictions

With neither Rangers nor Arsenal up to full speed yet, odds of 13/10 (2.30) seem like excellent value on them producing under 2.5 goals in another rather unproductive pre-season friendly for both teams.

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>With Rooney's men at a low ebb, Al Hain-Cole expects the Red Devils to ease to victory in their first pre-season friendly at Pride Park on Sunday

Manchester United will be aiming to get their pre-season preparations off to a winning start when they travel to Pride Park to take on Derby County on Sunday.

After finishing second in the Premier League and ending up on the losing side in the Europa League final last season, the Red Devils will be hoping that the upcoming campaign will see them make the step up and claim some silverware.

Derby County vs Manchester United latest odds

Having run out 3-0 winners at this ground in the FA Cup in March 2020, Man Utd are 4/11 (1.36) favourites with bet365 to come out on top once again.

Wayne Rooney’s Derby narrowly escaped relegation from the Championship last season but are on offer at 11/2 (6.50) to earn a much-needed morale boost by pulling off a shock victory against his former club.

Just one of the last nine meetings between this pair has resulted in a draw, but there are odds 10/3 (4.33) available on them cancelling each other out in this one.

Derby County vs Manchester United team news

Free agents Ryan Allsopp, Phil Jagielka, Richard Stearman, Ravel Morrison, Sone Aluko and Sam Baldock are all set to feature for the hosts as they seek to earn contracts at the club, while Curtis Davies should also play despite his contract expiring at the end of last season.

Tom Heaton is in line for his debut after arriving for a second spell at the club, with Aaron Wan-Bissaka, Axel Tuanzebe, Alex Telles, Brandon Williams and Mason Greenwood the biggest names among a youthful squad.

Derby County vs Manchester United preview

Although they narrowly escaped relegation thanks to a late Martyn Waghorn penalty against Sheffield Wednesday on the final day of last season, the Rams will not begin the upcoming campaign in particularly buoyant spirits.

Having seen a prospective takeover bid fail and with a transfer ban hanging over them, it is hard to see them turning a corner from the form that saw them take just a single point from the last available 21 in the league.

Derby County vs Manchester United predictions

Even without most of their key players, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s team looks well worth backing at 20/21 (1.95) to win by at least two clear goals at Derby on Sunday.
