Arsenal return to Champions League action tonight with a trip to face PSV Eindhoven.
Mikel Arteta’s men visit the Dutch champions in the first leg of their last-16 tie. The North Londoners are looking to bounce back from consecutive Premier League games without a goal. Dropped points to West Ham and Nottingham Forest have left the Gunners 13 points adrift of leaders Liverpool in the Premier League.
Europe offers another avenue to silverware, though Arsenal have a poor record in Eindhoven. Since winning their first encounter with PSV in the Netherlands in 2002, Arsenal are winless in four visits.
