The gunners faced BATE Borisov last season in the UEFA Europa League group stage matches and Arsenal won home and away, so they will be hoping to have similar performances so that they can qualify for the round of 16. Arsenal will this season be hoping to revenge their last season’s semi final loss to Atletico Madrid by winning it in May next year.
