ARS vs VIT Dream11 : Arsenal’s try to find solace in their travails in the Europa League as when they take on bottom of the group Vitoria today.
The fallout from arsenal’s recent defeat in the Premier League against Sheffield United couldn’t have been anymore gargantuan. The outfit put in another pesky performance in defence, seeing them slip up the one goal to their opponents, a deficit they were never able to erase infront of a defensive setup which was everything Arsenal yearn to become.
The defeat was one in the latest sets of losses for the side, seeing the clamour to part away with manager Unai Emery taking presence with the supporters of the club rampantly wanting to do away with a manager who has yet to impress. In his more than a year in charge of the club, Emery has come across as a ruffled figure, someone who has been completely caught unaware, failing to still recognise what his best playing 11 is as a team.
Its lead to the side amass just 30 points from 72 available ones while playing away from home, keeping a shambolic two cleansheets in that time, a scenario which has seen them being subjected to some absolute routings. And as Emery comes under major fire, being berated and facing backlash, he and his side turn to a shift of land when they play in the Europa League today.
Where the side are yet to lay down the marker in the Premier League, the Europa League has been a completely opposing story. Clubbed together with inferior sides, the club has doled out its young players in the exhibition tournament to win comprehensively, sitting atop of group F with the two wins from two.
And when they take on Vitoria who have failed to register a single win till now in the league, Arsenal will be quietly confident of not only making amends of their bygone clash but putting in a clinical performance to decimate and dismantle the visitors. This should be a match in which they thrive, fruitfully making a mockery of their opponents to cruise to the three points and further consolidate first place in their favour.

ARS vs VIT Dream11 Goal-Keeper
When we began crafting out our Dream 11 side for this impending clash, the first concern on our mind was to pick out the four viable options from the side. It lead us towards their goal-keeper, Miguel Silva with the man between the sticks looking to be one of the best picks from the side.
His side are going to be obliterated and pummelled by Arsenal today, a side who’ll be relentless and ruthless as they try to rejuvenate themselves, a discourse which should see Silva pick up a good amount of save points today.
ARS vs VIT Dream11 Defenders
While arsenal’s defensive failures are well documented in the Premier League, a major part of which has been Emery due to his refusal to play the better players, the Europa League has been a different story. Players like Rob Holding and Tierney have been entrusted to pull off the job for the side in this tournament, seeing the outfit emerge with two cleansheets till now.
It sees us repose faith in the side’s defence for this match, getting in a trivalent of picks from the side in the form of Kieran Tierney, Ainsley Maitland Niles and Rob Holding while we have the one name comes into our side from the opposition as well in the form of Florent Hanin.
ARS vs VIT Dream11 Midfielders
One of the many bemusing and perplexing decision from Unai Emery has been his decision to let out Lucas Torreira from Arsenal’s playing 11 in the Premier League but the midfielder has found his way in the side come the Europa League. He’s a dynamic player, someone who is on corner and freekick duty as well and always capable of transitioning the ball from defence to attack fruitfully, seeing him come into our side for today.
We have Reiss Nelson come in as well for us along with wide attacking player Bukayo Saka while it’s only the lone player from Vitoria yet again in the form of Marcus Edwards.
ARS vs VIT Dream11 Strikers
Gabriel Martinelli has been asked to play as the lone striker upfront for his side in this tournamnet and he’s done so with aplomb, bombarding his way to a slew of goals in the previous match. He looks set to add to that tally come today while from the opposition we are choosing Leo Bonatini, someone who might just find a goal if Arsenal decide to go off to sleep at the back and lose their way come today.
Captain And Vice-Captain
Martinelli has been decided to be made our captain with Saka coming in from the same side as the vice-captain.
