Pre-season round-up: Gabriel Jesus nets twice in first Gunners outing as West Ham beat Servette

Europa League: Bukayo Saka, Saliba, Odegaard in as Mikel Arteta’s team looking to shine without Jesus | Bodo/Glimt v Arsenal lineup.

Without their star player Gabriel Jesus, Arsenal will be playing Bodo/Glimt this evening and hoping to win in the Europa League.

The Gunners defeated FC Zurich in their tournament opener before weakening Bodo/Glimt last Thursday.

Arsenal’s Matchday Two match against PSV Eindhoven was postponed due to Queen’s funeral last month, but they still hold a commanding lead in Group A despite the setback.

The team led by Mikel Arteta will head to Norway full of optimism after winning five straight matches overall, including Sunday’s stunning 3-2 victory over Liverpool.

Additionally, a victory over Bodo/Glimt would essentially guarantee their advancement to the Europa League knockout rounds.

Europa League clash at the Aspmyra Stadion will kick-off at 5:45pm.
