Arsenal take on PSV Eindhoven in the Champions League at the Emirates Stadium

Arsenal take on PSV Eindhoven in the Champions League at the Emirates

Arsenal take on PSV Eindhoven in the second-leg of the UEFA Champions League tie after securing a massive lead away in the Netherlands. The Gunners have a 7-1 advantage and now play at home; but whatever happens, this will be the final time a second-leg clash is played in the red half of north London this season.

 

The bracket means should the Gunners reach the quarter-final against either Madrid side and then the semi-final, both first legs will be at home. Liverpool have just been knocked out by PSG, and Arne Slot’s team were on Arsenal’s side of the draw.

 

It might be that Mikel Arteta uses this game to give some lesser-used players some important minutes. Raheem Sterling and Jakub Kiwior could see game time while both Ben White and Gabriel Martinelli can use this as a useful game to get back to full fitness

Keown believes there’s a flaw in the Champions League format

Arsenal will face PSV looking to confirm their place in the last eight of the UEFA Champions League having won the first leg 7-1 in Eindhoven. Barring a European miracle, or nightmare from the Gunners’ point of view, Mikel Arteta should oversee the most pre-approved saunter into the quarter-final.

 

However, this will indeed be the last time that the Gunners will play the second leg of this season’s competition at their own ground. After the draw was made to decide who the Gunners’ last-16 opponents would be, the bracket leading to the final was also decided.

 

Arsenal will play both the quarter-final and semi-final, should they make it, at home in the first leg. This is, without doubt, the worst outcome for the club who were knocked out last season in the second leg away to Bayern Munich.

Arsenal will not play another Champions League second leg

Reporter XIs for Arsenal vs PSV

After a 7-1 win in the first leg away from home, Mikel Arteta has very little to worry about regarding potential Champions League elimination. However, it presents an odd scenario of wanting to respect the tie and give minutes to players, but not losing momentum by failing to win yet another match after the Old Trafford draw.

 

There is potential for the fringe players in the team to get some exposure and minutes. Mikel Arteta was asked a lot about Raheem Sterling in his pre-match press conference, and he could be one of those who play.

 

Will the youngster Nathan Butler-Oyedeji get a chance? football.london give their thoughts on who they would start on Tuesday evening.
