Team news

Arsenal need only a draw to confirm progression – a loss would also suffice if Frankfurt are defeated – but the Gunners will be without several key players after this game. The north London giants have lost four first-team players since Monday.

A tight hamstring saw Hector Bellerin miss out and the Spaniard is also a doubt for the upcoming clash Man City. The same is true for Nicolas Pepe, who scored and assisted in the 3-1 win, having bruised his knee. He will miss this European clash and might not feature against the Premier League champions.

A concussion to Granit Xhaka has sidelined the Swiss midfielder, who summer signing Kieran Tierney suffered a dislocated shoulder and will be out for a while. The four aforementioned players join Dani Ceballos and Rob Holding on the sidelines.

Standard Liege will look to capitalize on this as they need a win over the north London giants. Due to Arsenal’s superior goal difference, Frankfurt will have to lose to Vitoria.
