The imperious record Arsenal will be seeking to preserve against Slavia Prague
Story updated
The story in brief
6-second readWednesday night's clash with Slavia Prague will be Arsenal's 12th meeting with Czech opposition, currently boasting a near flawless unbeaten record.
From the source
Will Arsenal continue their excellent start to this Champions League campaign? Following wins over Napoli and then Lille, as well as an entertaining 2-2 draw with Bayern Munich, Mikel Arteta's team are well placed to once again finish in the top eight, seeking to end up as high as possible.
Well, as was the case on 4 November last year, the Gunners will take on Slavia Prague at the Fortuna Arena. Back then, Bukayo Saka opened the scoring from the penalty spot, before Mikel Merino's double secured a 3-0 victory over Jindřich Trpišovský's team.
The chances of a repeat outcome seem likely, considering Arsenal's imperious record against Czech clubs. To date, Arsenal have met clubs from the Czech First League 11 times, winning nine and drawing two of them, scoring a whopping 30 goals and conceding only three.
