The Champions League gets back underway tonight and it will be interesting to see how Arsenal respond to their first defeat of the season.
Shakhtar Donetsk come to the Emirates and will be looking to take a leaf out of Bournemouth's book after the Cherries claimed a surprise 2-0 win on Saturday night.
But that loss owed a lot to William Saliba's early red card and I'm expecting the Gunners to hit back against a side who lost 3-0 to Atalanta in their last Champions League game.
Arsenal beat PSG 2-0 at home in their last European outing and will be too hot to handle if they reach the same levels as that night.

Arsenal vs Shakhtar Donetsk top betting tips
Betano make the Gunners 1/12 hot favourites so it's hard finding a bit of value for this one. A win to nil pays just 3/4 but adding on under 4.5 goals in a bet builder takes you to 11/10.
We saw 11 corners when Shakhtar Donetsk ground out a 0-0 draw in Bologna on matchday one and that count could rack up here too if the Ukrainians try to park the bus.
Over 10.5 corners looks good at 21/20 with Betano while Arsenal -5 in that handicap pays 10/11 at Bet365.
Aston Villa vs Bologna top betting tips
Aston Villa have made a flying start to their UEFA Champions League campaign and will be looking to make it a hat-trick of wins when Bologna come calling tonight.
The Midlands club are sitting at Europe's top table for the first time in four decades but it looks like they belong after wins over Young Boys and Bayern Munich.
Bologna are gracing the tournament for the first time and they've found it harder going, drawing at home to Shahktar Donetsk then losing at Anfield.
Betano make the Italians 9/2 outsiders for this one and it's hard to disagree given they've won just once all season. But seven of their games have ended in draws so it could be a tight one.
Backing a Villa win with under 3.5 goals pays 51/40 in a Betano bet builder while the half-time draw also appeals at 6/5.
Morgan Rogers is in fantastic form for Villa and he's a tempting evens at Bet365 to either score or assist.
Real Madrid vs Borussia Dortmund top betting tips
The best game for neutrals to watch in the UEFA Champions League tonight could come at the Bernabeu as Dortmund take on Real Madrid.
The Germans smashed seven past Celtic in their last European outing so they will provide the European champions with a stern test.
Fellow Bundesliga side Stuttgart were unlucky to lose 3-1 at the Bernabeu on matchday one and Real Madrid then lost 1-0 on the road in Lille.
They will be fired up for a win here so going for goals looks the smart option. Over 3.5 strikes looks good at 21/20 with Betano while over 1.5 first-half goals is 11/10 at Bet365.
The midfield battle will be key and we could see a few cards, with Emre Can 2/1 at Bet365 to go in the book and Aurelien Tchouameni overpriced at 11/2 in the same market. Combining those bets takes you to a whopping 18/1.
