Some pages can be prefetched by the browser (see this or that). If a user uses a browser that prefetches pages, will this be counted by Google Analytics? If there are 5 pages to be prefetched, will Google Analytics count that as 5 visits?

From this SO answer:
The prefetch only downloads the resources, but does not execute the
code, or fire DOM events or so.
Given Google Analytics depends on running JS, I don't expect it to be
affected.
Any server side analytics that track requests to the given resources
will be affected though.
