Slavia Praha vs Arsenal prediction, odds and how to watch

Brighton put Arsenal to the sword with a controlled 3-0 victory at the Amex, with Pascal Groß, Charalampos Kostoulas and Chema Andrés all on target. Arsenal had 60% of the ball and did absolutely nothing with it.

Arsenal travel to Prague without a Champions League defeat in five matches, but Slavia Praha will make them earn every single point on Wednesday night.

Bayern München have been shipping goals for fun in European competition while Arsenal have barely let a soul past them. Something has to give at the Allianz Arena on Wednesday night.

Nottingham Forest host an Arsenal side that has won their last five Premier League matches, but the City Ground has a habit of making life uncomfortable for top-six visitors.

Mikel Arteta has signed a new Arsenal contract until 2030, with his pay rising towards the elite bracket occupied by Pep Guardiola and Diego Simeone. The deal, confirmed as Arsenal defend their first Premier League title in 20 years, frames this as a dynasty bet rather than a routine renewal.

Christos Tzolis was forced off just 18 minutes into Greece's 2-2 Nations League draw with the Netherlands, becoming the third Arsenal player, alongside Kai Havertz and Declan Rice, to return from the international break under an injury cloud ahead of the Leeds United fixture.

Brentford have opened contract talks with Kevin Schade in a bid to lock in their in-form winger before Arsenal or Liverpool can move in January, a defensive play that reflects the club's wider sell-high recruitment model.

Michael Carrick has dismissed any suggestion his Manchester United job is under threat after defeats to Hull, Manchester City and a Carabao Cup collapse against Brighton, insisting internal pressure is 'not on the radar'. But United's history of sacking Erik ten Hag and Ruben Amorim inside 30 and 14 months respectively suggests his confidence may be tested sooner than he expects.
