Arsenal can finish group campaign on a high by sauntering to another win
Gunners have a strong defensive record
Group E
BT Sport 2, 8pm Thursday
It's top versus bottom in Group E as Arsenal, bidding for a fifth straight clean sheet in Europe, host a Qarabag side who have scored only twice in five games.
The Gunners have a defensive crisis for Sunday's trip to Southampton but suspended pair Sokratis and Shkodran Mustafi are available for European duty and Petr Cech is a decent understudy to Bernd Leno.
Unai Emery's mix-and-match teams have played some decent football in this group with youngsters Emile Smith Rowe and Joe Willock on the scoresheet in a 3-0 win away to Vorskla Poltava last time out.
They also won the reverse fixture against Qarabag 3-0 and a small punt on the same scoreline could be worthwhile in this uncompetitive dead rubber.
Recommendation
Arsenal to win 3-0
1pt 13-2 general
