Arsenal vs PSG - Competition: UEFA Champions League
Arsenal team are level on points with PSG in the UCL Group A.
Arsene Wenger's men fought back in Paris to claim a point in the opening
round of fixtures, and won the three subsequent matches. They entered
the international break in excellent form, but they were underwhelming
in the weekend trip to Manchester United, drawing 1-1 at Old Trafford
courtesy of a late goal scored by Giroud.
Theo Walcott and Aaron Ramsey are major doubts and could be replaced by Granit Xhaka and Olivier Giroud. That would see Alexis Sanchez play in the three offensive midfielders. Neither Hector Bellerin nor Santi Cazorla are available to play while Lucas Perez, Danny Welbeck and Per Mertesacker are long term injuries. David Ospina will continue as Champions League goalkeeper.
