Arsenal welcome PSV to the Emirates on Wednesday night for the second leg of their Champions League last-16 tie, with the Red and whites looking to overturn a 6-goal deficit from the first leg.
Mikel Arteta and Co suffered another setback in their Premier League title chase last weekend when they failed to beat Manchester United at Old Trafford. The Gunners came from a goal down to draw 1-1 thanks to a second-half strike from Declan Rice, but it wasn't the result their fans wanted as they now trail Liverpool by 15 points.
PSV meanwhile kept their Eredivisie title hopes alive with a 2:1 win over Heerenveen on Saturday afternoon. Their supporters will be hoping for another win this week, but a similar scoreline will not be enough as they currently trail by six goals.
Arsenal vs PSV Eindhoven Betting Tips: Under 3.5 goals
With Arsenal already through in this tie, head coach Mikel Arteta is unlikely to field his strongest XI on Wednesday night. And the Gunners will have one eye on Sunday's London derby.
The first leg produced seven goals, but that was a rare occurrence, as six of the last eight meetings between Arsenal and PSV Eindhoven ended with two goals or fewer.
PSV's recent away trips in Europe have also been less than entertaining. Three of the last four have ended with under three goals and I fancy a similar result this week.
- Best Tip: Under 3.5 goals
- Arsenal vs PSV Eindhoven prediction: 2-1

Bukayo Saka has been out for the last 11 weeks with a hamstring injury and the winger is not expected to be fit before the March international break.
The Gunners' other injury concerns are Kai Havertz and Takehiro Tomiyasu, who are nursing hamstring and knee injuries respectively.
Gabriel Martinelli is in contention for a place in the XI after making his first appearance in over a month as a substitute at Old Trafford last weekend.

PSV Eindhoven team news
Sergiño Dest will be hoping for a start on Wednesday after making his long-awaited return from a knee injury against Heerenveen in the Dutch top flight last weekend.
The defender made his first appearance for the visitors in over 11 months as a substitute since suffering a torn ACL in April.
Ricardo Pepi is out until July with a knee injury, while Malik Tillman (leg) will also be unavailable to coach Peter Bosz this week.
