PSV Eindhoven have conceded nine goals in their five Champions League group games this season, and Arsenal are likely to take advantage of their defensive vulnerabilities and get on the scoresheet here. We expect the Gunners to win the game with a margin of two or more goals.
Both teams are quite attacking in their approach, and they are unlikely to sit back and defend here. This is likely to be an open game with a fair few chances, and a high-scoring game seems likely. 17 goals have been scored in the last five matches involving PSV and 22 goals have been scored in the last six matches involving Arsenal. Over 2.5 goals seem likely.
