Arsenal will meet Atalanta in their first game of this season’s Champions League campaign. This will be a very tough match because the Gunners will be away. Mikel Arteta’s side however has all that it takes to win the game.
The Arsenal squad has been very strong this season even with the setback of Martin Odegaard’s injury. The other available players have proven that, they have all it takes to cover up for their injured players.
The Arsenal players are seeking a win in this match, because they know that three points in this game will help them to advance closer to the next level. The players are also very much aware that, there is no second leg in this rounds Champions League. They will therefore focus more on the game and make sure that they get all the maximum points.
David Raya has been making great saves and he is expected to continue with his good form even in the Champions League. The Spaniard goalkeeper has so far managed to keep three clean sheets out of the four games that he has played in the Premier League.
Arsenal’s defence has also proven to be a very hard nut to crack. The combination of Gabriel Magalhaes and William Saliba has proven to be one of the best partnerships in the central defence across all major Leagues.
Mikel Arteta is also very hungry of trophies and therefore, he will take this game seriously because he wants to win something for Arsenal this season. The club performed very well last season but still ended trophy less.
Mikel Arteta will therefore try his best so that he can put his foot right in the quest for Arsenal’s first Champions League trophy. This is a new season and a new opportunity for the Manager to start again and see if he will be able to outshine other teams and lift that trophy.
