UEFA Champions League football returns to Emirates Stadium a week today! PSV Eindhoven are their first opponents - a side whom they faced in the group stages of last season's UEFA Europa League.
You have to go as far back as 2016/17 for the Gunners' last involvement in Europe's premier competition and for a club of our size, we can all agree, they've been absent for far too long! Their opponents in Group B include Europa League holders Sevilla, Dutch giants PSV Eindhoven and Lens, who finished runners up to PSG in Ligue 1 last season.
A tricky group? Yes. But one that in theory, Arteta's side are more than capable of winning? Right? European football expert Andy Brassell joined me on The Chronicles of a Gooner youtube channel to provide the download on each of our opponents.
Andy Brassell's new book: We Play On: Shakhtar Donetsk's fight for Ukraine, Football & Freedom is available to pre-order now via this link.
