Arsenal

Arsenal host Bodo/Glimt in the Europa League on Thursday night, so we simulated the clash to predict the final score.

FIFA 23 predicts that Arsenal could ease to a comfortable 3-0 victory against Bodo/Glimt tonight. With no pressure on him, Xhaka blasted his effort into the bottom corner, destroying any hope of a comeback for Bodo/Glimt. Marquinhos was a major threat down the left in the first half, and the Brazilian was involved again as he skipped past two men before firing a low cross into the box. A cross into the box was headed against the crossbar by Nketiah, with calamity ensuing from the loose ball. 56 seconds into the game, Bodo/Glmit were reduced to 10 men when Hugo Vetlesen was sent off for a dangerous challenge on Granit Xhaka, giving the Gunners a hefty advantage from the go. And with a busy schedule ahead including a clash against Liverpool on the weekend, the Gunners could make wholesale changes tonight.

Follow the action live as Arsenal and Bodo/Glimt both aim to remain unbeaten in the 2022/23 Europa League.
