Molde hosts Arsenal in round 4 of the Europa League group stage. The match will be played on Thursday, November 26th at Aker Stadion (Molde)
The Norwegian club demonstrates high-quality football both in the local arena and in European Cups. Now Molde takes the second line in the group. The fight for a place in the Europa League playoffs may intensify in the event of a defeat in the upcoming match. Such a result will give a chance to Rapid Vienna (if it succeeds in the match with Dundalk). Erling Moe has a quite combat-ready team, which Solskjaer began to build in the period from 2015 to 2018. Now the Norwegian club has enough skilled players with extensive European Cup experience. Molde's leaders include such performers as Eikrem, Hestad, Linde, Aursnes, and James.

The English grandee has lost its leading position in the local arena, where the Gunners have not been fighting for the champion’s title for a long time. Since the departure of Thierry Henry as a footballer from Arsenal, the London club has become only a contender for a position in the Europa League zone. The management pins great hopes on the appointment of Mikel Arteta, who has not yet managed to achieve high tournament indicators in the Premier League. However, the team won three consecutive victories in the Europa League without much difficulty. The Spanish coach is rebuilding the team. The main concern is the line of defense, where the players of the regular lineup are not stable. On the other hand, Saliba and Gabriel may well become one of the best pairs of center backs in 2-3 years, when they gain the necessary experience. The purchases of Thomas Partey, Willian, and Cedric Soares look interesting.
All problems apply to the English club only in the context of the local championship. In the Europa League, the Gunners have no problems with the results. Arteta's men feel a significant advantage over their rivals. Molde can only oppose an organized game, attempts to counterattack, and the hope for underestimation on the part of the visitors. Arsenal must win and secure first place in the group.
Prediction for the match: Arsenal to win
