Arsenal vs Bayer Leverkusen: Preview

Mikel Arteta's side left it late to oversee Everton at the Emirates at the weekend, a result that was made even sweeter as Manchester City dropped points at West Ham United.

Max Dowman's breakaway goal captured the headlines, as the teenager rose to stardom overnight by netting for the first time in his senior career.

Jurrien Timber suffered a first-half injury against the Toffees and won't play any part in the second leg on Tuesday evening.

The Dutchman joins Martin Odegaard (knee) and Mikel Merino (foot) who are both sidelined, but Leandro Trossard is in line to be recalled to the matchday squad.

Leverkusen enjoyed a spirited 1-1 draw with league leaders Bayern Munich at the weekend in the Bundesliga, in a game where both Nicolas Jackson and Luis Diaz were sent off.

Kasper Hjulmand's men have now drawn five of their last six games in all competitions, although another draw won't be enough in London, with the tie forced to be settled on the night.

They will have to be at their very best to eliminate the competition's favourites and must do without Aleix Garcia (head) and Martin Terrier (ankle), who were both forced off against Bayern.

Mark Flekken (knee), Loic Bade (hamstring), Arthur (ligament) and Lucas Vazquez (calf) are all still sidelined for the German giants.

FourFourTwo's prediction

Arsenal 4-0 Bayer Leverkusen

FourFourTwo thinks Arsenal will turn on the style and win comfortably at the Emirates Stadium.
