Arsenal vs Zurich – UWCL preview: TV channel, live stream, predicted lineups & prediction
Arsenal are back in Champions League action and back at the Emirates Stadium on Thursday evening as they face Zurich in their second group stage fixture.
The Gunners stunned reigning champions Lyon in their last European outing with a thumping 5-1 victory in France, and return to the Emirates for the first time since they set a new WSL attendance record against north London rivals Tottenham in September.
They face a Zurich side who have been free-scoring in the Nationalliga A this season, but were narrowly beaten by Juventus in their group stage opener.
When is kick off? Thursday 27 October, 20:00 (BST)
Where is the match being played? Emirates Stadium

Referee? Lina Lehtovaara (FIN)
Arsenal continue to be without first choice centre-back pairing Leah Williamson and Rafaelle, with Steph Catley and Lotte Wubben-Moy set to continue deputising.
Frida Maanum has been selected ahead of superstar Vivianne Miedema during Arsenal’s last two matches and been excellent on both occasions. She could keep her place once more on Thursday evening.
Arsenal (4-3-3): Zinsberger; Wienroither, Wubben-Moy, Catley, McCabe; Walti, Little, Maanum; Foord, Blackstenius, Mead.
Arsenal were superb against Lyon last time out in Europe, with the addition of Maanum’s energy to midfield a tactical masterstroke from Jonas Eidevall.
Zurich almost took a point from Juventus in their group stage opener, but conceded twice in the final 20 minutes as they suffered a 2-0 defeat. They will be set up to frustrate again, but the Gunners should have too much quality on Thursday evening.
