The 2013 Emirates Cup was a pre-season football friendly tournament hosted by Arsenal at its home ground, the Emirates Stadium in London. It was the sixth Emirates Cup, an invitational competition inaugurated in 2007. Held on the weekend of 3–4 August 2013, the participants were Arsenal, Porto, Napoli, and Galatasaray. The 2013 edition marked the resumption of the Emirates Cup as the tournament took a hiatus in 2012 due to the Summer Olympics.
The competition followed a point scoring system much like the Amsterdam Tournament, whereby each team played two matches, with three points awarded for a win, one point for a draw and none for a loss. It also reverted to system whereby each goal was awarded with a point. Arsenal did not face Porto, and Napoli did not play against Galatasaray.
The first day saw Galatasaray defeat Porto by a single goal, while Arsenal came from two goals down to draw against Napoli. Didier Drogba scored twice for Galatasaray against Arsenal to ensure the Turkish club won the tournament. Porto beat Napoli 3–1 to finish second, on six points.
