Arsenal visits FC Zurich on their return to European football after missing out on it last season and they will hope to begin their continental campaign in fine form.
The Gunners suffered their first defeat of the season against Manchester United at the weekend and that 3-1 loss brings to an end their 100% start to the term.
Mikel Arteta’s men have lost Thomas Partey and Mohamed Elneny to injury. Their unavailability has been one reason for their slump in form.
But European football offers them a good chance to finally rest some key players if their priority is to win the EPL or make a return to the top-four.
Zurich knows they are underdogs in this game, but that sets up nicely for them to begin this term with a surprise, however, their recent form suggests otherwise.
They have lost their last two matches before this fixture and these opponents are lesser in quality compared to Arsenal.
That should worry them because the Gunners have been ruthless against low-level oppositions this term and they will want to maintain that form.
The best prediction for today for this game is over 1.5 goals. For similar predictions, click here.
