FC Zurich 1-2 Arsenal LIVE! Nketiah goal - Europa League match stream, latest score updates today

FC Zurich vs Arsenal LIVE!

The Gunners begin their Europa League campaign with a trip to Switzerland this evening. Arsenal had been on a sublime run of form but came unstuck at the weekend, following a five-match winning run to begin the new season with a spirited defeat at Manchester United. Mikel Arteta will be eager for his side to bounce back quickly in tonight’s early kick-off.

Arsenal have named a strong side for this Group A contest, with £34million summer signing Fabio Vieira earning his first start after injury delays. Teenage winger Marquinhos also starts, along with USA goalkeeper Matt Turner, though Emile Smith Rowe has joined Thomas Partey, Cedric Soares and Mohamed Elneny on the sidelines.

Arteta’s side will be comfortable favourites to see off the challenge of Zurich, who have endured a woeful, winless start in the Swiss Super League, sitting second from bottom after losing five of their first seven games.
