Arsenal's clash against Manchester United in Los Angeles this Saturday still has nearly 20,000 tickets available after steep prices have left both clubs pushing to get them sold.
The Gunners face Bournemouth at the Dignity Health Sports Park and Man United at the SoFi Stadium this week, before taking on Liverpool in Philadelphia next Wednesday as part of their US pre-season tour.
Mail Sport understands that of the circa 70,000 capacity for the Man United match, 51,000 tickets have been sold.
It is in contrast to the Liverpool fixture at the Lincoln Financial Field, where 60,000 tickets have been sold of the 67,594 available.
The cheapest face value tickets for the Red Devils game are $126 (£97) and reach up to an eye-watering $667 (£516).

Arsenal themselves have been making an extra effort to promote the ticket sales through social media and plugging the ticket link.
The two teams are aiming to capitalise off their record-breaking pre-season encounter in New Jersey last summer which saw 82,000 attend the MetLife Stadium. That was record crowd for a soccer match at the venue.
There are hopes that a late ticket surge will occur as the weekend approaches.
