Are PSV the best opponents for Arsenal? If we're talking about teams that made it to the playoffs, then yes. But everything is unpredictable on the football field. One must maintain 100 percent concentration at all times. If you relax even a little, you will be punished for it. But Arsenal are the favorites in this matchup.
In the group stage of the Champions League, Arsenal finished third in their table with 19 points from eight matches, while PSV landed in 14th place and reached the round of 32, where they defeated Juventus 4-3 on aggregate.
PSV will host Arsenal in the first leg of the Champions League round of 16 on March 4, with kickoff set for 23:00 GMT+3.
