3 Way - Paris Saint-Germain 19/5

Since 2016 Arsenal has not lost to Paris Saint-Germain in all of the competitions. The last time they met in the Champions League, both legs ended in a draw. PSG were able to open the scoring thanks to Cavani's early goals in Paris and London.

History aside, Arsenal come into this game in good form. They have managed back to back wins in all competitions for the first time since August. They have been scoring for fun with 11 goals scored in their last 3 matches. Harverts has been key for the gunners in recent weeks, finding the back of the net against Bolton and Leicester. Martinelli got a goal and an assist against Leicester city on the weekend. Easing the pressure of not having Martin Ødegaard.

Paris Saint-Germain are still to taste defeat this season. They have no losses in there last 12 matches. They are sitting at the summit of the Ligue 1 table, with 20 goals scored and 5 goals conceded in the league. Bradley Barcola has been their stand out player contributing 6 goals, thanks to Joao Neve, Akraf Hakimi and Ousmane Dembele who between the three of them have assisted 11 goals in the league this season. Demebele has hit a rich patch of form, contributing a goal or an assist in four out of PSG's last five matches.

This is going to be a massive test for Mikel Arteta and his gunners. Paris Saint-Germain are in form and have their key players firing up front which will test Arsenal's defence. However, Arsenal have been accused of being masters of the dark arts, and they will be ready for anything Arsenal throws at them. Expect a thriller.
