Top of the Premier League after eight games, Mikel Arteta's side are in the conversation when it comes to title contenders. They didn't even finish in the top four last term, though, and for this reason they are involved in European competition on Thursdays, rather than Tuesdays or Wednesdays.

Arteta named a relatively-strong team for the Europa League win against FC Zurich, before the clash with PSV Eindhoven in north London was postponed. Next up for the Gunners is a double-header against last season's Norwegian champions Bodo/Glimt, and the Premier League side's recent history against Scandinavian opposition means they won't want to underestimate their opponents.
