Match Time & Date:

21:00
Prediction: 2-0
Monaco
Following a slim 1-1 draw with Fulham in the London derby, Arsenal will look to get back on course when they face Monaco in the Champions League round 6. The Gunners are eyeing their fourth win of the process and they are likely to go all guns blazing at les Rouges et Blancs. Both Riccardo Calafiori and Gabriel should recover in time to face Monaco, while the likes of Tomiyasu, White, and Zinchenko remain on the sidelines with injuries.
Adi Hutter’s troops, on the other hand, are hit by injuries and suspensions. Both Mawissa Elebi and Singo are banned for the match and seeing that all Balogun, Coulibaly, Diatta, and Diop are out of contention with injuries, there is a big value in betting on Mikel Arteta’s troops. In their last meeting in the Champions League, back in 2015, Arsenal recorded a 2-0 win over Monaco and we predict that history is going to repeat itself.

Born in Younde, Cameroon on February 14, 1997, Breel Embolo is a striker who plays for Bundesliga side Schalke 04. Embolo began his youth career at Nordstern back in 2008, but two years later he moved to Old Boys.

Speaking of his international career, Breel Embolo has four caps for Switzerland U21 team and he made his senior debut on March 31, 2015 in a 1-1 draw with United States of America. Embolo is very powerful striker, he is technically strong, he has explosive pace and a composed finisher.
Highlighted Team (Arsenal):
Arsenal are regarded as one of the best English teams. The Gunners have won 12 FA Cup trophies, 13 league titles and two League Cups, but they have yet to lift the Champions League trophy. Arsene Wenger’s team were on the verge of beating Barcelona in the Champions League final back in 2006, but they eventually failed to win the prestigious title.
Arsenal used to play their homes at Highbury, but in 2006 they moved to the Emirates Stadium. The capacity of the stadium is 60,260. The Gunners won their last Premier League trophy back in 2004, with the capital club going through the season without a single loss. The likes of Thierry Henry, Denis Bergkamp and Robert Pires were part of the team back then, but Arsenal have not won the league trophy ever since.
Arsenal was founded by Woolwich munitions workers as Dial Square back in 1886. It is well known that Tottenham Hotspur are Arsenal’s fiercest rivals and there have always been fireworks when the two local rivals meet in the North London derby.
