Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal travel to the Austrian capital this Thursday to take on Rapid Vienna in UEFA Europa League action. Getting back into the UEFA Champions League will be high on the Gunners’ wish list and winning this competition could be their best avenue. Can the Premier League outfit start their Europa League campaign with three points at the Allianz Stadion in midweek?

Rapid Vienna Preview – Can Wien shock the Gunners in Group B?

Dietmar Kuhbauer’s Rapid Vienna have made solid start to their season. Despite losing to Gent in a UEFA Champions League qualifier, the Austrian Bundesliga side have won five of their opening seven in all competitions.

After kicking off their domestic season with a 5-0 home win the cup, Vienna have gone on to win three and draw one of their opening four in the Austrian Bundesliga. Last time out, goals from Thomas Murg, Taxiarchis Fountas and Ercan Kara gave the Green-Whites an eye-catching 3-0 win over LASK Linz.

Molde and Dundalk are also in the group, so Arsenal and Rapid Vienna look likely to battle it out for top spot in Group B. Victory over the Premier League side on Thursday would be an excellent result, but Kuhbauer’s side would surely take a draw now if offered.

Arsenal Preview – Londoners to start European campaign with a win?

Mikel Arteta has done a good job since arriving at the Emirates Stadium to take over as boss. The Gunners won the Emirates FA Cup last term and picked up the FA Community Shield at the start of this season. Meanwhile, only Liverpool and Manchester City have beaten them thus far this term.

Exiting the Europa League at the Round of 32 stage was arguably Arsenal’s worse moment of last season. The Gunners will be looking to fare much better this time around, and the London side, along with rivals Tottenham Hotspur, are the favourites to win the Europa League in 2021.
