Arsenal vs Red Star Belgrade Preview

Arsenal vs Red Star Belgrade

Competition – UEFA Europa League

Stadium – Emirates Stadium

Date: 2nd November 2017

Kick-off time – 20:05 GMT

Arsenal will be looking for their fifth consecutive win when they host Red Star Belgrade in this game.

They Gunners have managed to build some consistency and character into their play as they have won their last four games in all competition including coming from behind to win their last two Premier League games.

They currently have the maximum nine points from three games in their Europa League group after winning all of their matches including the reverse fixture of this game (0-1).

Their last two games have ended in narrow 2-1 wins but fans will expect the Gunners to do better here and perhaps score more goals.

Red Star started their Europa League campaign very well after securing four points from their first two games and they were on course to qualify with the Gunners as the top two teams in the group.

That narrow 0-1 loss to the Gunners in their last game has seen them drop out of the top two and looking for a way back.

Their strength is at the back and they showed how defensively sound they are when they hosted the Gunners in their last game and they should prove hard to beat again in this game.

Their last match was the first head to head between these sides in recent years and Arsenal won that game 0:1.
