Arsenal vs PSV Eindhoven Preview and Prediction: The Gunners are in a difficult position.

Latest Arsenal vs PSV Eindhoven team news

Arsenal received some unexpected good news on Sunday as Gabriel Martinelli returned from a hamstring injury and came on as a substitute. However, another yellow card would result in a suspension for the first leg of the quarter-final, so manager Mikel Arteta may consider keeping him on the bench for Wednesday's match.

Raheem Sterling and Jurrien Timber are also at risk of suspension if they receive another yellow card. While Sterling may still play as Arsenal are not under too much pressure, Arteta could take this opportunity to give Ben White his first start of the year.

Elsewhere, Oleksandr Zinchenko, Jorginho, Jakub Kiwior, and Kieran Tierney are all competing for a place in the starting lineup. Goalkeeper Neto could also be given a chance. However, Arsenal are still without Bukayo Saka (hamstring), Takehiro Tomiyasu (knee), Kai Havertz (hamstring), and Gabriel Jesus (knee).

On the PSV side, coach Peter Bosz is still without Malik Tillman (leg injury), Ricardo Pepi (knee), and Esmir Bajraktarevic (unspecified injury). However, the Dutch team suffered no further losses after their victory against Heerenveen.

Former Arsenal striker Lucas Perez was on the bench but was not used in that match. However, the veteran signing is not eligible to play in the Champions League and will not have the opportunity to return to the Emirates Stadium on Wednesday.

Bosz certainly doesn't want PSV to give up, so the Dutch side could field their strongest lineup, led by veteran striker Luuk de Jong, as they try to put on a positive performance in London.

Latest football match prediction: Arsenal vs PSV Eindhoven

It's hard to believe that the 7-1 scoreline in the first leg didn't accurately reflect the match's dynamics, but Arsenal certainly understand they were fortunate to avoid several dangerous situations when facing PSV in Eindhoven. Typical examples include Ismael Saibari's close-range shot hitting the crossbar and Myles Lewis-Skelly narrowly avoiding a third red card of the season before being substituted early.

However, whenever Arsenal pushed forward in attack, they showed absolute sharpness, scoring seven goals from just eight shots on target. This emphatic victory made them the first team to score seven away goals in a Champions League knockout match.

After one of the easiest matches of the season at the Emirates, Arsenal are heading into a tough quarter-final where they could face Atletico Madrid or Real Madrid. But for now, they have the chance to equal another Champions League goalscoring record on Wednesday night.

If they continue to demonstrate their superior attacking prowess, Arsenal could become only the second English team in history to score a total of 10 goals in a Champions League knockout match, after Manchester City beat Schalke 04 10-2 on aggregate in the 2018-19 season. Furthermore, the London club currently boasts a streak of four consecutive European Cup wins at the Emirates Stadium without conceding a single goal.

However, the strength Arsenal displayed against PSV in the first leg was not replicated in their match against Manchester United last weekend. The Gunners could only salvage a point thanks to a beautiful goal from Declan Rice in a 1-1 draw in the Premier League – where they have a much better chance of securing a Champions League spot next season than competing for the title.

Despite the heavy defeat in the first leg, PSV fans still flocked to Emirates Stadium with a glimmer of hope stemming from history. The Dutch team had previously eliminated Arsenal from the Champions League round of 16 in 2006-07, and while repeating that feat is almost impossible, their most realistic goal now is probably just to avoid another humiliating defeat in the continental competition.

The comprehensive defeat against Arsenal stands in stark contrast to PSV's courageous performance in their play-off victory over Juventus. Whether that result reflects Arsenal's superiority or Juventus's decline remains a subject of debate, but what is certain is that PSV's Champions League journey is virtually over in North London.

Nevertheless, PSV somewhat regained their confidence last weekend when Saibari and Guus Til scored, helping the team end a run of three consecutive defeats with a 2-1 victory over Heerenveen in the Eredivisie. However, like Arsenal, they are struggling in the title race, trailing Ajax by eight points.

After the second leg at Emirates, PSV can fully focus on the domestic league. They are also aiming to end their run of 15 consecutive away games without a clean sheet in the Champions League – something they haven't achieved since their 0-0 draw against Atletico Madrid in 2016.

Given Arsenal's poor finishing against Manchester United and the fact that this second leg will have little impact on qualification, PSV keeping a clean sheet at the Emirates is not impossible. But even if they manage it, it would only be a consolation goal in a tie where the outcome is practically decided.
