Arsenal will welcome 2,000 supporters back to the Emirates tomorrow for their 5th Europe League Group B match of the season.
Even though the Gunners have already secured a spot in the competition’s Round of 32, Arsenal needs to build some positive momentum as the busy December fixture list kicks into full gear.
With that said, here is my predicted starting XI v Rapid Vienna for Thursday…
[4-3-3]
Nelson, Nketiah, Pepe
Willock, Elneny, Smith-Rowe
Maitland-Niles, Chambers, Mustafi, Soares
Runarsson
Predicted final score…
Earlier I thought this would be a 1-1 draw, however, the Gunners should get back on track with a win at home.

One of my all-time Arsenal players, Olivier Giroud, returns to Emirates Stadium on Tuesday. This time as a player for the competition, Lille. Giroud scored 105 goals in 253 appearances for the Gunners.
