Arsenal vs Standard Liege Dream11 prediction: The SportsRush brings you the Dream11 prediction between Arsenal and Standard Liege.
Arsenal will take on the Belgian side Standard Liege at Emirates Stadium on Thursday.
It has been a mediocre start to the season for the Gunners, who sit fourth in the league table. Even though they have gathered a decent amount of points, Pierre Emerick Aubameyang has single-handedly helped Unai Emery in that aspect. The Gabonese has been on a hot form and it would tougher for the visitors to contain him.
Standard Liege has made a tremendous start to their domestic campaign, sitting second in the league table. They have managed to bag 19 points from 8 games and procured a victory in the opening game against Vitoria. They like to do collective things, but they are far off on the paper compared to Arsenal.
The Gunners are the utmost favourites in this game and a likelihood of an upset is thin as a wire.
We shall look at the Dream11 prediction between Arsenal and Standard Liege.
Arsenal vs Standard Liege Dream11 prediction
Formation: 3-5-2
GOALKEEPER
Emiliano Martinez: Emiliano Martinez has been the goalkeeper for Arsenal in the Europa League. The Spaniard started the last game and is likely to keep the place for this game too. Since it’s a home clash, Martinez has the chance of keeping a clean sheet.
DEFENDERS
Shkodran Mustafi: Shkodran Mustafi will start in the backline for the Gunners. The German has been demoted to the Europa League appearances after struggling to find his form in the Premier League. It has been a smooth start for him in the European campaign. He possesses a huge threat from set-pieces.
Nicolas Gavory: Nicolas Gavory plays through the left defensive flank for Standard Liege. The French International has the perfect balance in the defensive and attacking side of the game. He can score goals and can defend by tracking back as well.
Hector Bellerin: Hector Bellerin is expected to be integrated into the starting lineup. The Spaniard has successfully recovered from a knee injury and is in contention to face Liege on Thursday. He provides a totally different dimension to their attacking and defensive aspect of the game.
MIDFIELDERS
Dani Ceballos: Dani Ceballos has been inconsistent since joining the Gunners. The Spaniard is expected to start in this clash and can do the job in the defensive and offensive part of the game. Ceballos can make a tackle and score a goal by linking up with his teammates.
Paul-José M’Poku: M’Poku was the only scorer in Standard Liege’s last Europa League game. The Congolese International has made a decent start to this season by scoring thrice and assisting twice from ten games in all competitions. He plays through the left-wing and could cause trouble to Gunners defence.
Mesut Ozil (VC): Mesut Ozil is playing second-fiddle in the current squad. The German is the first name on the team sheet for secondary competitions and will start this game. He has an eye for goals and can pick out passes to cause trouble to the opposition. His creativity is his major strength in his game.
Anthony Limbombe: On loan from Nantes, Anthony Limbombe has not been electric, but has maintained a first-rate performance. He has scored once and assisted once since his temporary move. He plays through the left-wing and has an abundance of pace.
Reiss Nelson: The young Reiss Nelson is anticipated to start this clash against Standard Liege. The English youngster scored once and assisted once in his only start against Nottingham Forest in the league cup last week. If he manages to pull off decent performance, he can stack up numbers in the final third.
FORWARDS
Pierre Emerick Aubameyang (C): Pierre Emerick Aubameyang has scored eight goals in all competitions this season. The Gabonese International is integral to the Gunners hopes of finding the back of the net. If he’s provided with the much-needed supply, he will guarantee goals.
Renaud Emond: Skipper of Standard Liege, Renaud Emond is yet to find the back of the net in the Europa League this season. However, he has scored four times in the Belgian league and could cause trouble to the average backline of Arsenal.
