Arsenal is undoubtedly one of the strangest teams to look at. No one doubts its strength, but the team can not always turn it into good results. In the current stretch, the best of your game in results has happened. The team had four consecutive victories in their last appearances.
In the last round, in fact, only made a second able time. The same was enough to impose on Stoke, winning the match by 3 × 0. In this stretch, Arsenal have shown the best of their game with two ends. The defensive system, a chronic problem of the club, has not been leaked in three of the last four games. Arsenal have also regained their confidence in playing at home. Despite all conspiring for another good performance here, the caution to rely on Arsenal is natural, recently.
Coach Arsene Wenger will be without Aubameyang, who has played for another club in this competition, and Danny Welbeck, injured. Goalkeeper Petr Cech, with physical problems, will hardly act.
Going back to talking thick. The CSKA lived moments where it seemed that the club, inside their guts, did not speak the same language. Replacing everything in their place, CSKA started to play again with confidence, returning to the title fight in their national championship, being in the quarterfinals of the Europa League.
Again, just as in the previous phase, CSKA is not seen as a favorite to be able to go forward. However, promising not to feel the weight of the game again, boosted by four consecutive victories in his last appearances, CSKA want to show ability to surprise. By joining friendly, their numbers throwing away from their home has been impressive. Knowing that you need to be at your peak, relying on what you can produce, CSKA wants to upset you.
Coach Viktor Goncharenko will be without Kirill Nababkin suspended. Viktor Vasin and Mario Fernandes are both injured.
Even irregular, the Arsenal still have more to draw from. The English team is in great shape and strong again in their home. The visiting team, however, has already demonstrated not to be intimidated in games as a visitor and is also going through a moment of great confidence. Yes, Arsenal are favorites, but I imagine the Russian team will keep the match open for the return game, avoiding a heavy defeat.
