Game Preview
Arsenal hopes to resume their winning ways versus Europa League winner Sevilla on Tuesday evening after somehow extending their unblemished start to the 2023–24 Premier League campaign. On Matchday 2, Sevilla and PSV Eindhoven played to a thrilling 2-2 draw as Mikel Arteta’s team fell short with a 2-1 defeat at Lens. Arsenal sits in 2nd place with 1 point lead over Sevilla who are currently in 3rd place in group B of the Champions League.
Arsenal had only dropped 1 of its 13 matches in all competitions throughout 2023–24 (8 wins, 4 draws), and that defeat came three weeks earlier in Europe. Late goals from Declan Rice and Leandro Trossard helped Arsenal overcome a deficit of 2 goals at Stamford Bridge versus Chelsea and extended Arsenal’s unbeaten run in the Premier League.
Gabriel Jesus, a striker for Arsenal, will be expected to carry on his recent success in the Champions League. He could eventually become only the second Arsenal player, following Marouane Chamakh in 2010–11, to score in each of his initial 3 Champions League appearances for the Gunners after scoring over PSV and Lens. The only player still out by an ongoing injury is Jurrien Timber.
Sevilla, the reigning Europa League champions, has changed the man in charge of the team since their thrilling 2-2 tie against PSV during Matchday 2 of the UCL. They twice had the advantage with to scores from Nemanja Gudelj and En-Nesyri during the contest, but Jordan Teze’s equalizer in the final minutes left them with just 2 points after 2 games.
Just five days afterwards, José Luis Mendilibar was fired after Sevilla’s disappointing La Liga start persisted following a 2-2 tie versus Rayo Vallecano. On Saturday, Diego Alonso, his replacement, watched a promising performance as his inaugural match in command concluded in a 1-1 tie against Real Madrid at home. Marcao and Mariano Diaz are anticipated to miss out for Sevilla, but Erik Lamela is back after recovering from a muscular issue.
