Molde vs Arsenal prediction: How will Europa League fixture play out tonight?

Arsenal will continue their Europa League campaign against Molde in Norway, with hopes to get back to winning ways on Thursday evening.

Mikel Arteta’s side come off the back of a draw against Leeds United – their second match in a row without scoring – and the game against Molde proves a good opportunity to gain a win.

The Gunners currently sit top of Group B and beat Molde 4-1 at their last meeting just three weeks ago, putting them heavy favourites having not lost a match in the Europa League so far.

Recent events are not without issue for Arteta and Co, though, with Nicolas Pepe having been sent-off recently and having to apologise for letting the club down.

Molde sit second in the group, with two wins from their three fixtures so far.

When is the match?

The game kicks off at 5.55pm on Thursday 26 November.

Where can I watch it?

The match will be shown live on BT Sport 2. Subscribers can also stream the match via the BT Sport website or app.

Line-ups

Arsenal: Runarsson; Cedric, Luiz, Mustafi, Maitland-Niles; Xhaka, Willock, Nelson, Pepe, Nketiah, Lacazette

Molde: Linde, Gregersen, Sinyan, Risa, Wingo, Ellingsen, Hestad, Aursnes, Hussain, Eikrem, James

Odds

Molde – 15/4

Draw – 3/1

Arsenal – 6/7

Prediction

The game should present no problem for the Gunners and a straight-forward win should ensue. Molde 1-3 Arsenal
