Overview
- Kickoff is 8:00 p.m. BST (3:00 p.m. ET) Tuesday at the Emirates in the Champions League league phase, Matchday 3.
- Arsenal opened Europe with back-to-back 2-0 wins over Athletic Club and Olympiacos and can reach their 100th Champions League victory with another win.
- Mikel Arteta is without Martin Odegaard, Kai Havertz, Gabriel Jesus and Noni Madueke, with Piero Hincapie a doubt, and rotation is expected from predicted XIs across outlets.
- Atlético arrive after a 3-2 loss at Liverpool and a 5-1 win over Eintracht Frankfurt, yet they have not won away from home this season.
- Arsenal have never beaten Atlético in a competitive match, and midfielders Declan Rice and Martin Zubimendi are one booking from European suspension.
