Arsenal are all set to kick start their Champion League journey with the impending encounter with Croatian giant Dinamo Zagreb, who have returned to the competition after two years.

Following a convincing victory over Stoke City, Arsenal have traveled to Dinamo Zagreb in the hunt of more victories to compensate EPL’s disappointments. They have to collect points before they encounter Bayern Munich next month to win Group F.

The task of beating Bavarian giants seems to be difficult, but Gunners’ supervisor Arsene Wanger hopes it to be eased down after the expected wins against Zagreb and Olympiakos.

Arsene Wanger’s boys will take on Dinamo Zagreb on Wednesday at Makisimir Stadium, Zagreb. The game will be kicked off at 7:45 pm and the viewers can catch it live on BT Sports.
