Match Preview of Arsenal vs PSV
With only a point required to seal a top-two finish in the Europa League, Arsenal resume continental duties in their rescheduled meeting with Dutch giants PSV Eindhoven on Thursday night.
The Gunners were initially due to welcome Ruud van Nistelrooy's men to the Emirates Stadium for their Group A battle last month, but the death and state funeral of Queen Elizabeth II forced the authorities to rearrange the match.
For the first time this season, Arsenal were fortunate to come away from a match with all three points to their name, as Leeds United huffed and puffed but ultimately fell victim to Bukayo Saka's goal in a tensely-fought contest at Elland Road.
Prior to finishing eighth in the Kopa Trophy, Saka lashed home from a tight angle before Patrick Bamford fluffed his lines from 12 yards, but the England striker would seemingly be handed a chance to rectify his earlier mistake in the dying embers after Gabriel Magalhaes appeared to kick out at him.
However, VAR - which took nearly 40 minutes to get up and running again after a power cut - spotted an earlier foul on Gabriel from Bamford, seeing the Arsenal man stay on the pitch and the penalty award revoked, and Mikel Arteta's side now hold a four-point lead over Manchester City and Tottenham Hotspur at the summit.
Our Predicted Lineups
Arsenal possible starting lineup:Turner; White, Holding, Gabriel, Tierney; Xhaka, Partey; Saka, Vieira, Nelson; Nketiah
PSV possible starting lineup: starting lineup:Benitez; Mwene, Ramalho, Obispo, Max; Sangare, Gutierrez; Simons, Veerman, Gakpo; Til
Who will win the match?
We say: Arsenal 2-2 PSV Eindhoven. How Arsenal came away from their meetings with Bodo/Glimt and Leeds with two clean sheets is still beyond belief, and a similar performance to Sunday's from the Gunners would certainly see them punished by a ruthless PSV side.
