Arsenal might have let go of their chances for Champions League, but Europa League seems more realistic for Coach Arteta. This remains a hard nut to crack as the Gunners host the Champions for Matchday 36. The match schedules for Wednesday at the Emirates with kickoff at 22:15 GMT.
Arsenal is having their worst season, and it is not yet over for the Gunners. The stats for the Gunners are further worse given their recent 2-1 loss to Tottenham. The loss increased the side’s worse stats with their last away win against a big six club coming in 2015 when Coach Arteta was still a player.
The Gunners are currently 9th on the table with 50 points, to points behind their North London rivals Tottenham and five points behind Europa League football. Coach Arteta will have to mend his shaky defence that has been a sour point for the side this season.
Manager Klopp might be waiting to have his hands on the Premier League title after 30 years of waiting, but the race is still on. Klopp has a good record at the Emirates with their last loss dating back to 2015 when Arteta downed the shirt. It remains a hard battle for Arteta to push his side against a winning team this weekend.
