Arsenal desperately need a Champions League win tonight to get their stuttering season back on track but won't get it easy as they take on Italian champions Inter Milan at the San Siro.
The Gunners were looking in great shape earlier in the season as they came through tricky away days at Aston Villa, Tottenham and Manchester City in a 10-game unbeaten run in all competitions.
But they have just two of their last five games and now sit seven points off the pace in the Premier League, with the creativity of injured captain Martin Odegaard badly missed.
Arsenal need a spark but Inter Milan away is a tough assignment, with Simone Inzaghi's side unbeaten in eight and winning seven of those matches.

Inter Milan vs Arsenal top betting tips
The bookies usually overprice continental sides when they face Premier League big guns but Betano make in-form Inter Milan slight favourites here at 6/4 with home advantage.
The Gunners are 15/8 while the draw pays 9/4 and those odds look about right in what should be a tight game. Inter have already drawn 0-0 with Manchester City at the Etihad in the new-look Champions League and also ground out a 1-0 win at Young Boys last time out.
Their only home game so far was a 4-0 romp over Red Star Belgrade but it should be a more cagey game tonight. I like the half-time draw at evens with Betano while combining under 2.5 goals with over 2.5 cards pays the same price in a bet builder.
Some stats bets also catch the eye and Thomas Partey is 13/8 at Bet365 to commit over 1.5 fouls, with Gabriel Martinelli 5/4 at the same firm for a shot on target.
Club Brugge vs Aston Villa top betting tips
Aston Villa are also looking to bounce back in the UEFA Champions League tonight after crashing to a 4-1 defeat at Tottenham in the Premier League on Sunday.
Unai Emery's side have a perfect record in Europe so far after racking up wins over Young Boys, Bayern Munich and Bologna. Club Brugge, on the other hand, have suffered two defeats already, including a 3-0 battering at home by Dortmund.
So it's no great surprise to see the Belgians as 23/10 outsiders at Betano, with Villa the 11/10 favourites. Club Brugge's last two European games have been fiery affairs, with 13 yellows and one red dished out in total. That makes me think backing over 52.5 booking points stands a chance at 6/4 with Betfred.
Midfielder Hans Vanacken is always a goal threat for Club Brugge and has netted four times already this term. He's 7/4 at Bet365 just to have an effort on target and that looks pretty good value.
Bayern Munich vs Benfica top betting tips
The pick of the other games in the UEFA Champions League tonight is probably Benfica clash with Bayern Munich in Germany.
The Bundesliga giants flew out of the traps with a 9-2 battering of Croatia Zagreb but then lost to Aston Villa before being crushed 4-1 by Barcelona.
If Vincent Kompany's side are going to qualify automatically for the last 16 they can't afford any more slip-ups so they need to go for it against Benfica.
The Portuguese side lost 3-1 at home to Feyenoord last time out but that was their first slip after impressive wins over Atletico Madrid and Red Star Belgrade.
We should see goals at both ends in this one and the bookies agree, with BTTS and over 2.5 paying just 31/40 at Betano. Even over 3.5 goals only pays 4/5 but a strike inside the first 15 minutes is better at 6/4.
The player markets offer longer odds and I like the 3/1 on offer at Bet365 for Bayern playmaker Jamal Musiala to provide an assist.

Celtic won last night at a good price, just goes to show it’s a good job we all don’t think the same. City were a scary price which should of put people off backing them, they really aren’t as good when Rodri isn’t available.
Agree with you. Bruno Lage took charge in m Benfica but we seem so vulnerable at the back. Otamendi seems out of form with some bad decisions. I think hes got good chances of being carded.
Cracker lar👏. Hopefully you had all to win acca aswell 👍
No joy with my Celtic corners last night LOSER
Some good winners last night – well done to all of them

Yeah, although they have a decent away scoring record and I think they’ll have enough to beat Brugge 2-1 or 3-1.
Rubbish display by Villa – see how the favourites do for the double.

Double booking pays 9/1+ wi PP – Super Sub
Brugges v Villa – Jashari to be carded
Shaktar v Young Boys – Niasse to be carded
Jashiri been booked 3 times in last 5 games, last were in the 1st half, plus will be up against Leon Bailey & was booked in last CL game in Milan.
Well in Cocker! Followed you on this
Niasse has 4 bookings in his last 6 starts for Young Boys, including against Villa in CL. He was also booked in CL playoff v Galatasary. From what I see Eguinaldo for Shaktar looks to bring a few booking against him and he plays down the left hand side.
Brugges btts & overs 11/10
Add shaktar Donetsk btts double 5/2
Good luck
