Arsenal's Europa League group stage fixtures announced with one surprising kick-off time

Arsenal's Europa League group stage fixtures have been revealed.

The Gunners were placed in Group F of this year's Europa League when the draw was made in Monaco on Friday.

And they were drawn against Eintracht Frankfurt, Standard Liege and Vitoria.

There is not a long trip among them, which was music to head coach Unai Emery and the fans' ears, particularly after last year when they had to travel to Ukraine and Azerbaijan during the group stages.

And now, the Gunners supporters can start planning their away trips after the fixtures for the group stages were revealed.

Arsenal start their campaign away from home, with probably their trickiest encounter of the lot - at Eintracht Frankfurt on September 19.

Two weeks later they are at home to Standard Liege, before the back-to-back encounters in the middle of the group stages - at home to Vitoria on October 24 and away to Vitoria on Wednesday, November 6

Arsenal host Frankfurt at the Emirates on November 24, before finishing the group stage way at Liege on December 12.
