Arsenal vs PSV: Gunners host familiar European foes on their huge Champions League return – stream, TV, team news
CHAMPIONS LEAGUE football returns to the Emirates after a six-year absence – and Arsenal open up Group B against familiar foes PSV.
The Gunners fell just short of lifting the 2022/23 Premier League title despite leading the race for three-quarters of the season.
But it meant that Mikel Arteta’s men comfortably qualified for Europe’s top-tier competition – arguably their main objective at the start of the campaign.
Furthermore, Arsenal will have the wind in their sails after finally breaking the curse of Goodison Park on Sunday.
However, PSV should be up for the fight as they got the better of the North London outfit when the sides last met in 2022.
