Arsenal to move top

The Europa League continues tonight and we have a meeting between Arsenal and Bodø/Glimt in Group A.

The game will be played at the Emirates Stadium in London and the hosts are currently second in the group on three points, with the visitors top on four points. Arsenal do have a game in hand.

Arsenal come into the match on the back of a good 3-1 win over Tottenham Hotspur at home in the North London Derby on the weekend in the Premier League.

The Gunners opened the scoring in the 20th minute but Spurs equalised before half time. Arsenal took the lead for a second time shortly after the interval and added a third goal following a red card for Spurs.

That result means Arsenal have won each of their last three fixtures in all competitions and eight of their nine games this season.

They have played only one match to date in the Europa League this season and it ended 2-1 in favor of Arsenal as they beat Zürich away from home. The winning goal was scored in the 62nd minute.

Trends show Arsenal have won two of their last six Europa League games. They are undefeated in six of their last seven at home but have kept just a single clean sheet in their last six home Europa League matches.

Bodø/Glimt make the trip to the Emirates Stadium having beat Lillestrøm 4-1 away in the Norwegian Eliteserien on the weekend. With the score level at half time, Bodø/Glimt came out strongly in the second half and scored three goals without reply, two of which were scored in the final three minutes of the game.

They are undefeated in each of their last three games, including a 2-1 home victory over Zürich. Bodø/Glimt also picked up a point thanks to a 1-1 draw at PSV Eindhoven in the Europa League, taking the lead before half time only to concede the equaliser in the second half.

Trends show Bodø/Glimt are undefeated in four of their five most recent Europa League fixtures but they have failed to win any of their last three on the road. Both teams have scored in three of their last four away Europa League games.
