Arsenal vs. Valencia: Europa League Final or bust

Arsenal are in Valencia for the second leg of their Europa League semifinal, after winning the first leg at the Emirates 3-1.

An aggregate score of 3-1 in Arsenal’s favor means that the Gunners can advance with a loss by one to Valencia (or, obviously, anything better than that). They can also move on with a loss by two, as long as they score two goals today. Valencia need a 2-0 win or to beat Arsenal by three or more in order to make it to Baku for the final.

Arsenal’s away form in the Premier League has been less than stellar, but they haven’t really messed up in the Europa League since their first match against Rennes in the round of 16. Since then, they dismantled Napoli twice, and they came back after conceding an early goal to Valencia at home to win that match by two. If they play like that again, they should be good to go.

There are no new injuries for either side, so both teams should be at full strength.
