Arsenal host FC Zurich in the Europa League tonight hoping to seal top spot in Group A.
Last week’s defeat to PSV left the Gunners without a guaranteed safe passage to the last-16 of the competition, which finishing in first place would provide with the runners-up taking on a demoted Champions League team in a play-off round.
Furthermore, the Dutch club now hold the tiebreaker with a superior head-to-head record. Arsenal know only a win will be enough to top the group if PSV defeat Bodo/Glimt in Norway.
