Arsenal vs PSV Eindhoven Champions League Prediction Match Details
The Champions League round of 16 second leg will continue on Wednesday night with PSV set to travel to Emirates Stadium to face Arsenal. Can the Gunners cruise on their home soil after a 7-1 first leg advantage?
Arsenal Preview & Form
Arsenal will come into the second leg of the last 16 of the Champions League on the back of a comfortable 7-1 victory in the first leg over PSV Eindhoven, laying a solid foundation. Mikel Arteta’s men have been solid in this season’s Europe games, as they have now won each of their last five Champions League matches, with two or more goals scored in each of the games. They have also been strong when playing on their home soil in the Champions League this season, having avoided defeat in each of their home Champions League games. However, last weekend, the Gunners managed to secure a 1-1 draw against struggling Manchester United at Old Trafford, thanks to an incredible strike from Declan Rice to overcome an early deficit to level the score.
PSV Eindhoven Preview & Form
PSV is experiencing a tough time since knocking out Italy giants Juventus in the round of 16 playoffs, during which they suffered an exit in their domestic cup and are also on the verge of being knocked out of the Champions League. Last midweek, the Dutch side was beaten 7-1 by Arsenal in the first leg of the last 16 on their home soil, and they will need a miraculous comeback to overturn the deficit. They will take confidence, having ended their three-match losing streak in all competitions by beating Heerenveen 2-1 on their home in their domestic league. It is worth noting that PSV has consistently displayed attacking quality by scoring at least a goal in each of their last 18 matches across all competitions.
