UEFA confirm Arsenal's Europa League group stage fixture schedule

Arsenal have discovered their schedule for the Europa League group stage.

The Gunners were drawn in a group with Rapid Vienna, Dundalk and Molde earlier today ahead of the group stage starting later this month.

Mikel Arteta's first game will be on October 22 with a trip to Rapid Vienna, just five days after they face Manchester City at the Etihad.

The fixture schedule sees two blocks of matches taking place over a three-week period.

That means the Gunners host Irish champions Dundalk at the Emirates a week after their opening game of the tournament.

Molde then travel to London on November 5.

A break then follows before the second block of fixtures kick-off at the end of November.

The Gunners start the second block of matches with a trip to Molde on November 26.

Rapid Vienna then travel to the Emirates on December 3 for the final group stage home match.

That will be an interesting week for the Gunners, with the game sandwich between matches against Wolves and Tottenham Hotspur, which will be the first north London derby of the season.

The Gunners' group stage will finish with a trip to Ireland to face Dundalk.

That match will take place at the Aviva Stadium in Dublin.

Arsenal's Europa League fixture list is as follows:

October 22 - Rapid Vienna vs Arsenal - Kick-off 5:55pm (UK time)

October 29 - Arsenal vs Dundalk - 8pm

November 5 - Arsenal vs Molde - 8pm

November 26 - Molde vs Arsenal - 5:55pm

December 3 - Arsenal vs Rapid Vienna - 8pm

December 10 - Dundalk vs Arsenal - 5:55pm
