Arsenal will take on Slavia Prague at the Emirates Stadium in the first leg of the Europa League quarter-final on Thursday. The kick-off is at 21:00 CET.
Preview
The Gunners claimed a 3-2 victory over Olympiacos on aggregate to reach this stage of the competition so it would be fair to say that Mikel Arteta's men haven't faced a decent contest in Europe this season so far. Arsenal, however, will host Slavia on the back of a two-game winless run as they drew West Ham 3-3 before suffering a 3-0 loss at the hands of Liverpool over the weekend.
The Czech side, meanwhile, remain unbeaten in 21 consecutive matches across all competitions, including their EL last-16 tie with Rangers (3-1 on aggregate). Even though Jindrich Trpisovsky's side will travel to London on the back of a goalless draw against Zbrojovka Brno, Slavia have proven themselves a hard nut to crack this term.
Team news
David Luiz and Kieran Tierney won't help the hosts on Thursday while Martin Odegaard remain doubtful. The visitors, for their part, are set to be without their first-choice goalkeeper Ondrej Kolar and two key centre-backs Simon Deli and David Hovorka in mid-week.
Prediction
Even though Slavia have gone 21 games unbeaten ahead of their trip to the English capital, the absence of their first-choice goalie and centre-backs could prove to be vital for their chances against the Gunners. Let's say that Arsenal's victory in this one is a no-brainer but we can't envisage Aubameyang and Co. destroying the Czech team which made it to the competition's quarter-finals past Steven Gerard's Rangers.
Tip
Arsenal to win and total under 3.5 at 2.22 with 1XBET.
