For arsenal, the first leg should be played more or less on familiar ground. The Gunners competed at the Georgios-Karaiskakis Stadium in Piraeus on February 25th. It was there that the game against Benfica was played. In the end, the Gunners prevailed 3-2. Again, the English got off to a better start. The first good opportunities did not take long. After only six minutes, Aubameyang failed at the crossbar. The guests had more of the game and after 34 minutes went earned through Ödegaard in front. Olympiakos Keepers José Sa, however, had made a serious mistake in the long range shot and did not make a good impression. After the change of sides, a mistake by the English in building the game caused the surprising compensation by El-Arabi. The Greeks were now at the trigger and even sniffed through El-Arabi at the lead. In the final phase, however, the visitors showed themselves to be freezing cold in the goal conclusion and reached the 3-1 final score by Gabriel and Elneny. The gate to the quarter-finals was thus opened a long way.
The Gunners have been strong in the Europa League so far and shouldn’t have to endure a single defeat. The group phase was contested with a smooth march. A whopping 18 points resulted from the elapsed six encounters. In all fairness, it must be said that the competition with Molde, Rapid and Dundalk was anything but overwhelming. In the intermediate round Benfica was eliminated with 1:1 and 3:2 respectively. The 3-1 from the first leg against Piraeus creates a good starting position for the upcoming second leg.
The Gunners are distinguished by the best offensive alliance in the Europa League. He looks at a proud 27 goals. With nine matches played, this makes a cut of three goals per game. The defense has allowed nine goals so far and is not always safe. Aubameyang, Willock, Nketiah and Pepe are the best attackers in their own ranks with three goals each.
The dress rehearsal on the last match day in the English Premier League was mastered with flying colours against Tottenham. In front of the home scenery, a narrow 2-1 success jumped out after 90 minutes. Three of the last six leagues were to be won. Furthermore, two defeats and a draw came about. With 41 points, Arsenal ranks 10th in the table.

In the intermediate round of the Europa League, Eindhoven had to be beaten. With a 4-2 in the first leg, the goal to the quarter-finals was pushed wide open against the backdrop of home.
