Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta expects the lack of fans at Manchester City for their first game of the Premier League restart to balance things out.
The Gunners play their game in hand against City on June 17 – the second match of Project Restart following Aston Villa's game with Sheffield United earlier that day.
It will be a very different prospect to the one they were due to face in the original game – one which was called off due to Arteta testing positive for coronavirus in March.
"We are trying different things, we are trying to give minutes in the legs to all the players," he added.
"We have had to change a lot of players through the games. We are getting adapted to playing in an empty stadium as well and losing that energy from the fans.
"It was good, we played two friendlies and we are getting the rhythm, we haven't played for a while. We tried to make it as close as possible to a real game."
