Arsenal are hoping to play their Europa League second group stage fixture against PSV this Thursday. However, confidence that the match will be able to go ahead has since dipped from the weekend.
The passing of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II has led to the Premier League postponing last weekend's fixtures out of a mark of respect. With the City of London planning what will be one of the biggest police operations in history for the capital, Arsenal’s midweek clash remains in doubt due to a lack of available police to martial the event.
Suggestions for how to solve the issue are underway. Arsenal and UEFA are in discussions as are the organisers and Metropolitan Police Force regarding finding, if possible, a solution.
