DNDK Vs ARS Fantasy Team Probable Playing 11 And Match Report: Mismatch on the cards as top and bottom square off against each other.
They just can’t put a step in the right direction in the Premier League but Arsenal have been flawless in the Europa League. Having won all of their five clashes till date, the side makes a foray into its culminating group stage tie striving to keep its 100% winning record intact.
Although the side has assured itself of top spot in Group B, this is far from an inconsequential affair for Arsenal. Slipping to yet another defeat at the weekend after being dismissed 2-0 by Tottenham, for Arsenal, today’s clash is a means to try and restore confidence which has vanished up in the smoke.
And much like their foregone travails in the Europa League, this should be another canter in the park for the side. Where they have won all their outings, Dundalk are yet to record a triumph in the group, the only side to remain winless, results which place the side in bottom spot.

This showdown between top and bottom spot will unravel in only one manner with Arsenal wiping the floor with Dundalk.

Fantasy Picks
Goal-Keeper
Asked to safeguard the worst defensive unit in the competition, Gary Rogers has refused to be bogged down by the task infront of him. He’s parried away everything thrown down his way to act as the watchdog of his side’s ticks and accrue a multitude of save points.
Defenders
Not only are Dundalk the worst defensive unit in the group but they also form for the worst attacking unit. Where they have scored the least number of goals in the tournament, Arsenal have conceded the least number of goals, a matchup which alludes towards a cleansheet for Arsenal.
It will see us opt for the trio of Pablo Mari, Cedric Saores and Sead Kolasinac.
Midfielders
Not much can be read into Nicholas Pepe’s displays in the Europa League given the sorry identity of the oppositions he’s come across. However, he’s managed to make these outings count to emerge as the club’s top scorer.
Emile Smith Rowe popped up with a goal the last time around for his side, one which should earn him a spot in Arsenal’s playing 11 today. Dundalk on the other hand will be represented by Chris Shields who has the one goal and one assist and Jordan Flores.
Strikers
For striker Alexandre Lacazette, scoring in the Europa League has been the only leeway he’s been accorded at a time when his form has completely vanished. Giving him company is Reiss Nelson who assisted the last time around while opposition will see Michael Duffy be ingrained in our team.
Captain And Vice-Captain
Pepe’s three goals and two assists see him captain our team while Nelson is the vice-captain.
