Arsenal will host the Spanish side Sevilla at Emirates on November 8th. The Gunners are leading the group and a victory in this match will be a massive step forward to the round of 16.
Key Highlights
After a long-term absence, Arsenal returned to the Champions League with two wins and a single loss against Lens. Mikel Arteta’s side beat Sevilla in the previous encounter 1-2 and they are considered the favourites in this matchup as well.
The loss against Newcastle last Saturday was a blow for Arsenal, who are fighting for higher goals. They currently sit 4th in the Premier League, having 24 points in 11 games. A win in this match will give Arsenal an edge and 99% qualification to the next round.
Meanwhile, Sevilla have struggled on the domestic front. Having just 11 points in 11 matches, they are near the relegation zone. Their main attention is now towards the Champions League, where only 3 games remain.
