Arsenal make their long-awaited return to the UEFA Champions League this evening after six years away from the competition. The Gunners welcome PSV Eindhoven to north London for the first of six group fixtures.
Both teams come into the contest on the back of unbeaten starts to the season. Mikel Arteta's men have won four of their opening five games in the Premier League, scoring nine and conceding four.
