The Gunners reached the semi-finals of last season’s Europa League competition but were stopped in their tracks by Atletico Madrid.

They must venture to Spain once again to get the job done, but take a healthy 3-1 lead into the showdown.

Boss Unai Emery won the Europa League for an unprecedented three times in a row between 2014 and 2016 with Sevilla.

He is the most successful manager in the history of the tournament following his trio of triumphs, level with former Inter and Juventus top dog Giovanni Trapattoni.

How can anybody possibly predict Arsenal any more?

The Gunners’ last three defeats have come against Leicester, Wolves and Crystal Palace with each team knocking three goals beyond the Bernd Leno.

Their last four victories have come against Valencia, Napoli – home and away – and Watford with Emery’s men only conceding one goal in that time.

Home advantage and a desperate need to score their way back into contention will aid Valencia, but Arsenal just need one goal to all-but kill the tie.

Prediction: Valencia 2-1 Arsenal
