Arsenal vs Slavia Prague: Confirmed team news

Arsenal travel to the Fortuna Arena on Wednesday night as Mikel Arteta searches for another three points in his Champions League campaign.

Arsenal secured their first win at Anfield in 14 years over the weekend in a narrow 1-0 victory, boosting the side three points clear at the top of the Premier League table.

The Gunners have collected seven points from the first nine on offer in Europe so far, beating Lille and Napoli before drawing with Bayern Munich.

A worry for Arsenal may be that Slavia Prague have now strung together a five-game unbeaten run in all tournaments and have won back-to-back fixtures ahead of a fixture which may not be as easy as first thought.
