OLY Vs ARS Fantasy Team Probable Playing 11 And Match Report: Arsenal await a dicey test come today’s showdown.
Looking headed for a win when they took on Burnley at the weekend, Arsenal had to pay a heavy and calamitous prize on the day. Xhaka decided to once again indulge in his shenanigans on the day, ones which ended up costing his side a win.
The midfielder’s bemusing decision to pass the ball back to Leno right in the face of Burnley pressure saw Chris Wood pounce on the mistake. The ball deflected off him to nestle into Arsenal’s net and with it see the home side squirm their way to a 1-1 draw.
The howler left Arsenal with just the two wins in their last three matches, gorm which hardly augurs well ahead of their round of 16 Europa League engagement today.
