This Tuesday, Arsenal will face Shakhtar Donetsk in their Champions League match at the Emirates Stadium.
Despite a recent 2-0 loss to Bournemouth, Mikel Arteta’s team remains unbeaten in the Champions League, having earned four points from their first two games—a hard-fought draw with Atalanta and a solid 2-0 win against Paris Saint-Germain.
With a significant league fixture against Liverpool on the horizon, Arsenal will seek to gain confidence against a Shakhtar team that is struggling.
On the flip side, Shakhtar Donetsk is struggling to find their form, currently sitting outside the upper ranks of the league phase after two matches without scoring.
Coach Marino Pusic’s squad will face an uphill battle against an Arsenal team eager to return to winning form.
