Athletic Club (4-2-3-1, from right to left): Simon (GK) — Areso, Vivian, Paredes, Berchiche — Vesga, Jauregizar — I. Williams, Sancet, Berenguer — Sannadi
Injured/Doubtful: Nico Williams, Benat Prados, Unai Egiluz, Inigo Lekue

Injured/Doubtful: Martin Odegaard, William Saliba, Christian Norgaard, Bukayo Saka, Kai Havertz, Gabriel Jesus
Arsenal come in as favourites based on their better squad depth and experience in Europe. Athletic Club will play in a well-organized defensive system, but the loss of top scorers such as Nico Williams might undermine their attacking potency. Arsenal's midfield dominance, courtesy of Zubimendi and Rice, should dictate the pace.
Prediction: Arsenal 2-0 Athletic Club
