ARSENAL need just a point against Lens to secure their spot in the Champions League last 16.<\/p>\n

The Gunners welcome the French side to the Emirates as they look to get revenge after losing 2-1 on the other side of the Channel.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Mikel Arteta's men put in a rare poor performance in the first meeting against Lens despite going ahead via a strike from Gabriel Jesus.<\/p>\n

But since then they have won six of their last eight games and have conceded just seven goals in the process.<\/p>\n

It is a simple job for Arsenal going into their fifth match in Group B – avoid defeat and they will be in the pot for the knockout stages.<\/p>\n

And a win means they will secure top spot with a game against PSV to spare.<\/p>\n

With fixtures coming thick and fast over the Christmas period, a chance to make the match in Eindhoven on December 12 a dead rubber could be vital as Arsenal fight for Premier League glory.<\/p>\n

As for Lens, they are level on points with PSV and know if Sevilla lose then they will be in some form of European competition in the new year.<\/p>\n

After a poor start to the season they have now climbed to sixth in Ligue 1 and should not be underestimated as they are on a run of one loss in their last 12 in all competitions.<\/p>\n

Arsenal will be without Jurrien Timber, Thomas Partey and Emile Smith Rowe, who are all recovering from injuries.<\/p>\n

Kai Havertz will be hopeful for a start after his winner away at Brentford last time out.<\/p>\n

David Raya and Fabio Vieira are back in contention after being ineligible and suspended respectively from the game versus the Bees.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Lens will be without Morgan Guilavogui after he was sent off in their previous Champions League match.<\/p>\n

Deiver Machado,\u00a0Jimmy Cabot\u00a0and\u00a0Wuilker Farinez\u00a0are sidelined with injuries.<\/p>\n

However, manager Franck Haise will be boosted by the return of key centre-back Kevin Danso.<\/p>\n

Star Players<\/h2>\n

Arsenal's starboy Bukayo Saka has been in stunning form in Europe this season, scoring twice and assisting three goals in the four matches so far.<\/p>\n

The 22-year-old also has an assist in each of his last two Premier League outings and all eyes are on him with Gabriel Martinelli struggling to perform consistently.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

It is tough to break down Arsenal's stubborn defence but Elye Wahi will be the man looking to do so.<\/p>\n

The striker scored and set up the other as Lens beat the Gunners in October.<\/p>\n

Wahi was signed by the club for \u00a330million from Montpellier in the summer after hitting 19 Ligue 1 goals last term. <\/p>\n
