Arsenal's next two Europa League fixtures could be decisive in their quest to still be playing in European competition in the new year.
As things currently stand in Group A, the Gunners lead the way after picking up maximum points against FC Zurich and FK Bodo/Glimt thus far. However, because the PSV Eindhoven fixture was postponed last month due to the severe limitations on police resources and organisational issues related to the ongoing events surrounding the national mourning for Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II ", they still have four games left to play.
Starting with this evening's (Thursday) reverse meeting with Bodo/Glimt, Arsenal then face PSV in back-to-back games and then conclude the group phase by welcoming FC Zurich to the Emirates Stadium at the beginning of November in one of their final fixtures ahead of the season pausing for the winter World Cup in Qatar.
