Arsenal suffer a blow ahead of Champions League semi-final tie with PSG

In Europe’s premier competition, you’ll need a little bit of luck on your side in addition to quality if you want to be successful. All things considered, the campaign has been very unlucky at times for the Gunners. Nothing exemplifies this more than the consecutive dropped points we’ve suffered recently in the league, and also the Champions League. We’ve been the most unlucky in terms of player availability with injury being the chief reason for that. Off the back of the 2-1 loss this weekend, Martin Ødegaard is yet another big name that might miss the Paris Saint-Germain clash along with the ever impressive Jurrien Timber. Despite the injuries keep coming with unrelenting speed, Arsenal will still harbour hopes of an inspirational comeback when they travel to Paris on Wednesday.

This hope would’ve been made stronger when there were doubts concerning Ousmane Dembele’s availability for the second leg. However the Gunners will enjoy no such advantage (his absence) when they do battle on Wednesday night. The forward was involved in PSG training on Monday which only further increases his chances of making the starting lineup. The Frenchman reportedly suffered a Hamstring strain in the first leg which kept him out of their 2-1 loss to Strasbourg at the weekend.
