Basel vs Arsenal Prediction 6 December 2016

Tournament: Champions League
Location: St Jakob-Park Stadium
Match date: 06.12.2016 at 19:45

On December 6 2016 at 19:45 in the regular game of the 6th round of the Champions League at the St Jakob-Park Stadium the local Basel play against Arsenal.

We must admit that Basel are the leaders and definitely the strongest team of Sweden. After 16 games played in the Swedish Super Liga they are the favorites of the national championship and are very likely to win it. They haven’t lost single match and gained 44 points with 47:12 goal difference. In fact, Basel are 15 points above their closest rivals. As for the Champions League, in this competition they are not doing so great. They drew Ludogorets twice, lost to PSG twice and lost to Arsenal once. So, Basel have only 2 points and take the last place in the table of the group with 2:8 goal difference.

Arsenal haven’t lost for 12 games in a raw in all of the competitions they take part in. yet, any series should end and the Gunners lost to Southampton 0:2 in the English League Cup last week. In the national championship Arsenal are on the 4th place after 13 games played where they gained 28 points. We must also admit that the Reds from London are definitely going to take part in the play-offs of the Champions League after 4 games played there. Yet, they will have to compete for the first place in the group.

The teams only met once in the current group stage and Arsenal won 2:0. Of course, Arsenal will be trying to win just like Basel. Basel need to win that game to make it to the Europa League. As for Arsenal, they definitely want to take the first place in the group to avoid playing against the favorites of the competition in the play-offs.
