Ahead of the final round of the Champions League league stage, Barcelona holds second place. However, Arsenal is right behind, ready to challenge the Blaugrana for a top-two finish.
Details: Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta is confident that his side can compete, emphasizing their defensive solidity in the Champions League, having conceded just two goals in seven matches. He hopes for a similar performance in the upcoming clash against Girona.
Quote: "We certainly need to do that, and defensively we’ve been extremely strong. In the last seven games, we’ve only conceded two goals so that’s what we want to do tomorrow. We want to finish as high as possible, and we have come here to win the game, to try to be better than the opposition and if we do that, hopefully we can finish second,” Arteta told TNT Sports.
