- Location: Fortuna Arena, Prague
Slavia Prague's recent form shows they have been struggling for wins in European competition. Their last five matches include a goalless draw away at Atalanta, a 3-0 defeat at Inter Milan, and draws at home against Bodo/Glimt and Malmo in both the Champions League and Europa League respectively. Their more recent domestic form has been mixed, with two wins and three draws in the league, but they have generally struggled for goals, scoring an average of just one goal per game in their last five league matches.
Arsenal, on the other hand, are in strong form. They come off recent wins in domestic competitions, including a 2-0 league victory over Burnley and clean-sheet wins against Brighton and Crystal Palace. In the Champions League, Arsenal have won all three of their group games so far, including a comprehensive 4-0 home win against Atletico Madrid. While they have not been involved in a high number of games with over 2.5 goals recently, their ability to keep clean sheets has been a more prominent feature, with Mikel Arteta's side keeping seven clean sheets on the bounce in all competitions.
Regarding the head-to-head record, this fixture presents a relatively rare encounter between the two sides at this level. Historically, Arsenal hold the edge, unbeaten against Slavia Prague with two wins and two draws in previous European ties, including a 4-0 win away in a Europa League match in 2021.
With the Gunners on a run of nine consecutive wins in all competitions, it's hard to imagine anything other than three points for the Premier League side here.
Slavia Praha 0-3 Arsenal
