PSG Vs Arsenal - Champions League Preview by FTScores: 3:16pm On Sep 13, 2016
Despite struggling at France's domestic Ligue 1, PSG is hoping to upset Arsenal's qualification dreams in a Group A Champions League match which comes up later today.

PSG's coach, Unai Emery is yet to find the right combination at the club which appears to be have been destabilized by the departure of Zlatan Ibrahimovic. However, his success at European level with Sevilla, after delivering three consecutive UEFA Cup titles to the Spanish club will surely count.

Emery is keen to involve Thiago Silva, who has not played for his club since a pre-season friendly against Real Madrid due to injury.
"Big matches are for big players," he said.

"We will decide after the final training session. We will see how he feels. The most important thing is if he feels ready. He is a big player. If he feels good, it is a possibility."


On the other hand, Wenger is expecting a huge task ahead as he hopes to lead Arsenal into the last 16 of the Champions League for the 17th consecutive season.

"I think PSG were missing a number of players (in recent games)," Wenger said.

"They had certain players who joined up a bit later, like us. Similar problems to the ones we face, but we'll see.

"I think they missed a number of players at the back. They were at the same hotel as us in Los Angeles and Thiago Silva got injured there. He's an important player for them.

"But they're clearly superior in the domestic league, so I expect a slightly different PSG in the Champions League."


From reports Wenger is likely to lead his team on the field with a 4-2-3-1 formation on paper. Oliver Giroud is expected to be alone upfront - hoping to pounce on any loose ball and cause PSG's defense problems. On the other hand, PSG's Unai Emery will be going for an attacking formation; 4-3-3 - which may see Edison Cavani, Di Maria and Lucas Moura in attack.

The game kicks off at the Parc des Princes stadium at exactly 7:45 PM (WAT) in the Paris.
