Arsenal host Dinamo Zagreb in the Champions League needing a win to ensure they're in contention for a top eight finish and that coveted bye to the round of 16. The Gunners come into the game after a disappointing draw against Aston Villa in the Premier League.

In the six weeks since Arsenal last played in it, the Champions League has become their best, perhaps even their last, hope of silverware this season. For Mikel Arteta, then, the calculus on how to approach the two remaining league phase games must change.

Arsenal sit fifth in the Champions League table heading into tonight’s action, having won four of their opening six games. They drew with Europa League holders Atalanta and lost to Inter Milan but have otherwise impressed, with the 5-1 win away at Sporting CP surely their standout performance.
