The Gunners are unbeaten in European competition so far this season, following up their 0-0 draw with Atalanta with a statement 2-0 victory over Paris Saint-Germain last time out. Still, they will need to recover from their 2-0 defeat at Bournemouth in the Premier League on Saturday.

Arsenal vs Shakhtar Donetsk prediction

The Gunners have to be strong favourites at home despite missing three key players in Odegaard, Saka and Timber.

This is not the Shakhtar of old, who could do toe to toe with some of Europe’s elite. They have registered just one shot on target across two games - a draw with Bologna and a 3-0 hammering at the hands of Atalanta. This should be fairly routine for the Gunners.

Arsenal to win 2-0.
