Key Highlights

Arsenal’s Bid to Bounce Back from the Shock Defeat Away to Lens

Arsenal’s 2-1 defeat away to Lens in matchday two was a shocking result that means Mikel Arteta’s men have to win their clash away to Sevilla or their efforts to make it out of Group B will be in jeopardy early on.

Since the defeat to Lens, Arsenal have beaten Manchester City 1-0 and drawn away to Chelsea 2-2, showcasing consistent form and solidity.

Arteta will hope that his side can replicate their domestic form to bounce back in Group B and get the three points in Spain on Tuesday.

Sevilla’s Unbeaten Start in Group B

Sevilla have two draws from the opening two rounds in Group B. They have scored three goals and conceded three times. They have two points, just once behind Arsenal.

A Sevilla win will see them leapfrog Arsenal in the Group B table. This will be the motivation for Sevilla as they look to turn their season around domestically and in Europe.

Injury Report

Sevilla

Team news from Sevilla shows that no fresh injury worries have been reported for the team ahead of hosting Arsenal on Tuesday.

This will come as a shot in the form for Sevilla as they have gone three matches in La Liga without a win. 

A full squad will give the gaffer sufficient ammunition and flexibility to choose a tactically disciplined side to get something from the home clash against Arsenal on Tuesday.

Arsenal

Mikel Arteta has been boosted by the returns from injury of some of his players, including Bukayo Saka, who was fit enough to be in the starting 11 in the come-from-being 2-2 draw at Stamford Bridge against Chelsea on Saturday.

This means that the Gunners are only without center-back Jurrien Timber ahead of their trip to Sevilla for their matchday three in Group B. The 22-year-old tore his cruciate ligament on August 13th; the injury has kept him sidelined for Arsenal’s last 11 matches. No return date has been set for the Dutchman.

The team news will come as a boost for Mikel Arteta as he balances Premier Legue action with the demanding schedule of the Champions League. He will make minimal changes to the team that drew at Stamford Bridge as he bids to recover from the 2-1 defeat they suffered away to Lens last time out in the Champions League.

Possible Lineups

Sevilla

O. Nayland; J. Navas, N. Gudelj, S. Ramos, M. Acuna; D. Sow, B. Soumare, I. Rakitic; D. Lukebakio, Y. En-Nesyri, L. Ocampos

Prediction

Sevilla have demonstrated that they can be robust and compact in their approach. They will look to be defensively aggressive in this match with their focus on eliminating all the spaces in between the lines and giving Arsenal no room in the middle of the pack to dictate things. 

Arsenal will look to avoid back-to-back defeats in Group B when they meet Sevilla on Tuesday. Mikel Arteta’s men will look to be proactive on the ball and in their play. They will dictate the tempo and dominate the ball.

Sevilla will primarily attack on the counter and in transitions. They will defend with two blocks of four when out of possession. On the ball, they will look to break the lines and attack with pace.

Arsenal will have too much for the La Liga side Sevilla; the Gunners will win the match and tale the three points.
