Arsenal have confirmed a couple of u18 pre-season fixtures to add to their schedule of six u21 games, with tickets now available for the majority of the matches.

Jack Wilshere’s u18 team will face Hitchin Town and Hendon in a couple of away games in August, with both matches open to the public.

The rest of the u18 pre-season fixtures will be played behind closed doors, so these two matches will be the only opportunity to see the team in action ahead of the new campaign.

Arsenal have also organised and confirmed a number of u21 fixtures.

The u21s will kick things off with the traditional game against Boreham Wood at Meadow Park, followed by an away game against Enfield Town.

The team will then travel to Slovakia and face Rapid Vienna, followed by Bishops Stortford away, Lincoln City away, and concluding with a home game behind closed doors against Stoke City u21s.
