Venue: Lobanovsky Dynamo Stadium Date: Wednesday, 17 September
Kick-off: 1945 BST Coverage: Sky Sports 3, BBC Sport website, BBC Radio Five LiveTeam News: Nasri may not be fit in time to make the trip to the Ukraine for the Champions League clash against Dynamo Kiev.
The Frenchman, 21, will have his injured ankle checked before a decision on whether he travels.
Mikael Silvestre could return but Gael Clichy and Emmanuel Eboue have niggles.
Following Adebayor's hattrick at the weekend, the Kiev manager said the following:
"We knew very well prior to this the capabilities of the Arsenal forward," said Semin.
"But we will not be putting a man-marker on him. Adebayor plays all over the pitch, and in every zone there will be one of our players to meet him."
Following that comment, it looks likely that Kiev will be playing a closing down game, looking to frustrate our attack by not allowing them to get going. However, they might find it hard to close down a certain Mr. Theo Walcott (or should I say Trio?!). Theo looks to continue his good form after his sensational hattrick during the international break.
Now, more about our opponents on Wednesday. Dynamo Kiev come into the game in good form having beaten Olkom Melitopol by 5 goals in a league cup game. However, they played a reserve team for that game, so their first team go into Wednesday fully rested.
It is going to be a tough game for the Gunners. One in which I feel that we should win, not comfortably but win all the same. We go into the game in fantastic form, scoring a total of 11 goals in the past three games as well as having the best defensive record in the league with only one goal conceded. Its an extremely hard game to open our Champions League campaign with, but a game that we can win.
Thanks for reading,
Cheese
