Bournemouth aims to maintain its perfect record in the Europa League at Sparta Prague
PRAGUE (AP) — Bournemouth travels to Sparta Prague in the Europa League with the aim to stay perfect after four rounds on Thursday.The English side has been cruising in its maiden European campaign with three wins over AC Milan, Sturm Graz and Real Sociedad.
The Gunners appeared to tire after half-time against Slavia Prague and conceded late on in a 2-1 win
Thursday's Europa League game will see the Cherries play Sparta Prague at epet ARENA.
Arsenal goalkeeper David Raya has admitted his side must sharpen up their second-half display despite holding on for a 2-1 Champions League victory away at Slavia Prague on Wednesday night. First-half strikes from Noni Madueke and Viktor Gyokeres put the Gunners in control before the Czech hosts mounted a late fightback at the Fortuna Arena.

Noni Madueke and Viktor Gyokeres scored in the first half to hand Arsenal a 2-1 win at Slavia Prague in the Champions League on Wednesday.Arsenal got back to winning ways in Europe after a 2-2 draw at Bayern last month, reaching 10 points from four Champions League games so far, while Slavia have a single point in the standings.
Arsenal earn their third win from four in the Champions League as goals from Noni Madueke and Victor Gyokeres are too much for Slavia Prague, despite a valiant late fight from the hosts to get back into the game.
Another away day, another victory for Arsenal. This time, the much-maligned Viktor Gyökeres stole the show as poor Slavia Prague matched the longest winless streak in European Cup and Champions League history despite a spirited late comeback. That now stands at 23, equalling the mark set by AEK Athens and FCSB – formerly known as Steaua Bucharest – while Arsenal are now unbeaten in their last 10 away European trips. After last week’s wobble against Fleetwood, there was no prospect of Arsenal making the same mistake again as soon as Noni Madueke fired them ahead early on after being superbly set up by Gyökeres. That was his third assist in his last five appearances, although Mikel Arteta will have been even more encouraged by the emphatic finish that had seemed to put the game beyond Slavia’s reach just before the break. While Kai Havertz remains his undoubted first choice, having another striker in form will only boost Arsenal’s challenge and it was noticeable that there was an extra spring in the 28-year-old’s step after his goal. Continue reading...
Despite his lack of minutes for Arsenal this season, striker Viktor Gyökeres is still managing to make his mark. The Gunners boast a 2-0 lead over Slavia Prague at half-time and the Sweden internat...

All the latest from the seven 8pm GMT kick-offs Kane’s Ballon d’Or party gives way to hangover for Bayern Live scores | League phase standings | Football Daily It’s 1-1 at half-time in Istanbul after a deflected strike apiece for Fenerbahce and Liverpool. For all the valid arguments against the Champions League group phase using a ‘Swiss model’ – and there are many – it has at least produced an entertaining spectacle, with the bigger teams facing each other more regularly and the games, especially this season, producing lots of goals. Last night Manchester United discovered a new brand of chaos-ball to take centre stage, and take some heat off Michael Carrick, while Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain reminded us all why they are considered two of the favourites for the trophy, scoring nine goals between them.

Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta says William Saliba “feels ready to go” and hinted the France defender could return in Wednesday’s Champions League game against Slavia Prague. Saliba is yet to feature for the Gunners this season after being forced out of France’s World Cup semi-final defeat to Spain due to a back injury that did not require surgery.
Defender travelled with squad after long injury absence ‘I have clips’: Arteta hits back after Liverpool complaints Mikel Arteta is confident that William Saliba is ready to make his first appearance of the season for Arsenal after he played 45 minutes of a match behind closed doors last week. The France defender started training on his own last month after the back injury he sustained at the World Cup but has since resumed full training and on Tuesday travelled with Arsenal’s squad to face Slavia Prague. It remains to be seen whether Saliba will feature in the Czech capital given such a lengthy absence, although Arteta insisted that he has no doubts the 25-year-old is primed to return.

Hosting Arsenal in the Champions League on Wednesday, Slavia Prague are facing the mammoth task of ending a drawn-out winless streak in the competition as an unwelcome record looms.- 'Unlucky' - Slavia have faced Arsenal three times in the Champions League, recording a draw and two losses including a humiliating 7-0 drubbing in London in 2007.
Accidents will happen. They also have consequences. Leeds were playing well, certainly better than Bournemouth for the first 30 minutes until James Trafford committed a grievous error. The goalkeeper made a horrible mess of a pass to an unwitting Ao Tanaka. In stole Justin Kluivert to set up Evanilson for a fifth goal in six matches. Where Leeds’s confidence sagged, Evanilson continued to find the best form of his time on the south coast. The Brazilian was full of tricks, flicks and intelligent movement until he was substituted. Thursday’s Prague assignment in the Europa League was being kept in mind. The continued rise of Bournemouth, celebrating a sixth successive win, is testament to changing times, a model club playing thoroughly modern football. Continue reading...
