Arsenal will face Olympiacos in the last 32 of the Europa League after the draw was made this afternoon.
The Gunners finished top of Group F despite failing to win their final three matches against Vitoria, Eintracht Frankfurt and Standard Liege.
Taking control of the group earlier on with impressive performances from youngsters like Bukayo Saka, Joe Willock and Gabriel Martinelli, the Gunners were able to limp over the line.
Losing 2-0 with 15 minutes to go against Liege, Arsenal risked finishing second in the group, meaning they would have been an unseeded team for the round of 32 draw.
Being seeded means that Arsenal will be away in the first leg, getting the home advantage in the return fixture.
The first leg will take place on February 20 2020 with the second legs being played a week later on February 27.
Arsenal's form will need to pick up dramatically before the round of 32, however, as they currently have just one win in their last 11 games.
Five of those games have been under Freddie Ljungberg who has had very little time and man power to right the wrongs made by Unai Emery in his time in charge.
After the Swede made it public that he wants the club to make a decision on who will become the new head coach, chief executive Vinai Venkatesham was spotted leaving Mikel Arteta's house just hours after Manchester City beat Arsenal 3-0.
On Friday, football.london reported that the Spaniard was the leading contender for the role after he was on the club's eight-man shortlist to replace Arsene Wenger in 2018.
Following this, Sky Sports have claimed that Manchester City want to speak to Arteta to clarify the situation.
