Arsenal return to Prague for matchday four of the Champions League league phase, facing Slavia Prague tonight. The Gunners last visited the Czech capital on November 4, 2025, when they won 3-0, with Mikel Merino scoring twice in the second half after Bukayo Saka converted a penalty.
Form and Favourites
Arsenal come into the game after a significant win over Liverpool that ended their long Anfield hoodoo. However, last week's Carabao Cup exit to Fleetwood Town serves as a reminder against complacency. Mikel Arteta's side are big favourites to maintain their unbeaten start to the league phase, having beaten Napoli and Lille and drawn 2-2 with Bayern Munich a fortnight ago.
Slavia Prague have picked up just one point from their opening three Champions League fixtures, losing to Lens and competition debutants Sabah, but did claw back a two-goal deficit against Fenerbahce to earn a point. The Czech side have never beaten Arsenal in five previous attempts, failing to score in any of the home meetings, which includes a 4-0 loss in an Europa League quarter-final second leg in April 2021.
