Arsenal vs Qarabag
Europa League 2018-19
Venue: Groupama Arena, Budapest
Kick-off: 8pm GMT

With the Gunners already qualified as group winners and a runners-up spot well out of the visitors’ reach, there is little riding on Thursday’s Emirates clash.
But with injuries stacking up ahead of the busy festive period, Unai Emery will be keen to see which of his youngsters are ready to step up.
