Slavia Prague vs Arsenal Team News

Slavia Prague claimed a 2-0 victory over neighbors Sparta Prague in the Prague derby. In this game, Slavia Prague scored in each half of the 90 minutes to beat their visitors, and subsequently, extend their lead at the top to 17 points – albeit having played two games more than Sparta Prague who are their closest challengers.

This victory was their 23rd successive match without defeat in all competitions - highlighting how impressive their performances have been. In fact, the Red and Whites are yet to suffer defeat at home throughout this campaign, winning eleven of their last thirteen on their home soil.

Getting to this stage of the Europa League, Slavia Prague have had to overcome two British sides in the previous rounds, beating Leicester City and Rangers at their homes to secure progression in the competition. And the Czech giants will be hoping to make Arsenal their third British victims, especially after nicking an away-goal advantage in the first leg.

Arsenal were dominant in the opening leg of this tie, but they barely made their supremacy count, spurning almost all the chances that fell their way. With less than five minutes of regular time left, they eventually grabbed the lead through Nicolas Pepe. And the Gunners looked set to end the contest with a win, up until, Slavia Prague managed to squeeze one in, with seconds left on the clock.

This late equalizer stretched Arsenal's wait for a clean sheet by one more game, having failed to keep the ball out of their net in their previous 13 games in all competitions. However, they were able to keep their opponents silent in their following game in the Premier League.

Arsenal scored three unanswered goals - including a Alexandre Lacazette double - to secure an unusual 3-0 victory over basement club Sheffield United. Although they still stare at the strong possibility of missing out on the European qualification spots.

Mikel Arteta and his side will be wary of the threat that their Czech counterparts possess, and they will be fully aware of the need to take their chances as early as possible, considering how much it cost them when they failed to do so in the first leg.

Injured or Suspended Players

Slavia Prague: David Hovorka, Ondrej Kudela, Simon Deli, Peter Olayinka and Abdallah Sima.
