Preview, prediction, line ups
Arsenal start their Champions League season with a tough away fixture against last year’s Europa Cup winners, Atalanta, who were the only side to beat the German side Bayer Leverkusen last season when they won in Dublin. Arsenal will welcome back Declan Rice, but will still be without Odegaard. A good win in the North London Derby against Spurs at the weekend will give Arsenal plenty of confidence and this game will be a proper test which will indicate how far they might go in this competition. A draw will be a good result for the Gunners, so a draw it is.
Atalanta: (3-4-2-1) Carnesecchi; Kolašinac, Hien, Djimsiti; Ruggeri, Éderson, de Roon, Bellanova, De Ketelaere; Lookman, Retegui
Arsenal: (4-4-2) Raya; Timber, Gabriel, Saliba, White; Martinelli, Rice, Partey, Saka; G Jesus, Havertz
