Arsenal may have dropped a huge team news hint ahead of their match against FC Zurich on Thursday night in their Europa League group stage opener. The Gunners have travelled to Switzerland to face the division champions, who have since struggled over a summer of change.
Zurich are the lowest coefficient team in the group for Mikel Arteta's side, meaning a victory will be crucial to getting their competition off to the right start. The Spaniard has some huge decisions to make when it comes to the team too, having taken a strong squad with him to the game.
When asked about that decision, he said: "We don’t have that many players available unfortunately because of the injuries we picked in the last few weeks. This is a competition that we want to take very seriously against an opponent that is going to make life difficult for us. We want to start the competition in the right way and maintain our momentum."
