Arsenal vs. PSG live stream: Watch Champions League online
By James Dudko
Arsenal face Paris Saint-Germain at the Emirates Stadium on Wednesday. Here’s all the info you need to watch.
It’s a match sure to determine who takes top spot in Group A of this season’s Champions League. But key injuries are concerns for both teams, particularly in midfield.
The game will be broadcast live on Fox Sports 1. Action can also be streamed at Fox Soccer 2Go.
Arsenal will be without right-back Hector Bellerin and pint-sized playmaker Santi Cazorla, according to James Benge of the London Evening Standard.
Bellerin’s recovery pace and contributions raiding from the flanks will be missed. Yet Cazorla could prove the more significant loss. His vision, quick feet and varied radar are vital in how the Gunners pass the ball and exploit spaces between defensive lines.
Similarly, PSG rely on mercurial Argentinian flair player Angel di Maria for creative inspiration. Unfortunately, the ex-Real Madrid and Manchester United man is a doubt, per the Sun‘s James Orr.
He also noted how Adrien Rabiot and Javier Pastore, two more players with the technical acumen to unlock a defense, could miss out. PSG manager Unai Emery will be more reliant than ever on Italian schemer Marco Verratti to try to dictate play.
Emery’s opposite number, Arsene Wenger, has a major decision up top. He has to decide if he can risk resting striker Alexis Sanchez.
The Chilean is reportedly set to earn a winter break as Wenger looks to keep him fresh. But this match may be too important to risk not starting the man who has redefined Arsenal’s attack this season.
