ARS Vs OLY Dream11, Team Probable Playing 11 And Match Report: Unbeaten in 2020, Arsenal strive to keep that sparkling form going today as well.
When Arteta had taken over as Arsenal’s manager, there were massive question marks raised and fingers pointed at the appointment. With this being his first job as a manager of a club and Arsenal in disarray, the appointment was seen as a bemusing one, one which emoted towards a lack of ambition from the London based club.
However, Arteta has managed to silence his naysayers in the small period of a month with the manager massively overhauling things at the club. From floundering in the Premier League with the unit being made a mockery of by their opponents to now being unbeaten in 2020 till now, the revival is there for all to see.
On an ascendancy in the Premier League, the club will be looking to stretch that unblemished form come their second round encounter with Olympiacos today. They pulled off a crucial 1-0 win when they went to Greece for the previous face off between the two sides, a pivotal away goal which could end up making all the difference in the contest.
ARS Vs OLY Probable Winner
Olympiacos are sitting atop of the Super League but the previous tie between the two sides was the perfect testament to the clear difference in quality between the Greek league and the Premier League. Olympiacos for all their dominance in their country were caught unaware of how to deal with Arsenal with the visitors begin allowed to craft together attacking plays with ease.
And with Arsenal playing infront of their rapturous supporters, the home side should manage to putdown Olympiacos with ease to maraud their way into the ensuing round.

Bernd Leno was handed over his first match in charge of Arsenal’s goal in the Europa League the last time around and he showed exactly why he was chosen for the task. He was in imperious touch with his tenacious showing seeing Arsenal pull off an unlikely cleansheet from the contest.
ARS Vs OLY Dream11 Defenders
Arsenal’s Bukayo Saka just can’t do any wrong at the moment. He only came on as a substitute in the previous fixture between these two sides but it still managed to rake up an assist, one he followed up with another assist for the side in the weekend.
