Champion's League : Arsenal vs Sevilla

After they won the UEFA cup twice in a row, Seville have the chance to try out among the best. This is their debut in The Champions League although they have more experience in European matches than some of the constant participants of this championship. On the other hand Arsenal will participate tenth time in a row in this elite competition.
Seville, after the third place in Primera last year, winning AEK from Athens, found their way to the Champions League. They continued to play as good as in the last season and with 18 goals out of last five matches they are threatening to be the serious candidates for winning the trophy this season. The team remained the same, they kept Dani Alves who was close to a transfer to Chelsea, while the coach Juande Ramos is still on the bench in spite the rumors that he will be transferred to London but to a place of Tottenhams coach. The defense line is made of the experienced Kanoute who played for the mentioned London club, Russian international Kerzakov Luis Fabiano and newly signed Seydor Kelta and Aruna Kone. Kerzakov who played with his national team of Russia few days ago and Kanuto come to the Emirates stadium with two goals, and they hope to repeat the game against Recreativo. Javi Navaro will miss this match while Juande Ramos will have Luis Fabiano, excellent defender Escude and Hinkel at his disposal.

Arsenal started the new season in Premier league very good and after almost three years they are again on the head of the standings. After Tierry Henry left, not even the greatest optimists in Arsenal hoped for such good start. After the victory against Tottenham on White Hart Lane it is evident that the team have the quality and that they can keep the continuity in their game. The key man of Arsen Wenger this season is the Spanish twenty year old player Fabregas. His creativity in the midfield was enough to outmatch the city rival Portsmouth, as well as Sparta in the Champions League and Manchester City before that. Wenger has problems with injured players but these are no news when we remember the last match in the Premier league. Gallas and Ebou will play which could create problems in the defense of one of the most efficient teams in Europe.

A very uncertain match; these teams havent met in the last ten seasons. Goals are expected in both nets although Arsenal usually dont finish the games in Champions League with many goals. You can expect them to be additionally careful because of the importance of this match and the debut of Seville. The advantage of home ground can also be crucial so you should try Arsenal win with a handicap.
