Match Preview
Arsenal will be desperate to bounce back from a shock 2-0 defeat at Bournemouth in the Premier League when they host Shakhtar Donetsk in the Champions League.
Having seen a six-month, 12-game unbeaten run come to an end, the visit of the Ukrainian champions represents a good chance to get back to winning ways and record their second straight Champions League victory.
The Gunners triumphed as 2-0 winners over Paris Saint-Germain last time out in the competitions having drawn 0-0 at Atalanta on Matchday 1, with Shakhtar going into the clash at the Emirates with just a point to show from their opening two games.
Arsenal and Shakhtar have two wins each in their previous four meetings in the Champions League, their most recent ending in a 2-1 home victory for the Ukrainian side in 2010-11.
