The Gunners will go into that Emirates Stadium showdown in excellent domestic form having seen off Watford with a triple salvo of late goals.

That added to high-scoring domestic wins over Leicester and Manchester United: Wenger cannot be ignored when he claims Arsenal really are title contenders this term.

But defeats by Dinamo Zagreb and Olympiakos interspersed between impressive Premier League displays mean the Gunners will be all but out of Europe this month if they slip up again.

"The confidence level is there, the required result is there as well," said Wenger. "We know exactly what is needed - a 0-0 is not even a good result. To score goals, we have to attack.

"Let's be realistic, we've just come into the Premier League, we're not expected to just go and beat Arsenal. We gave the fans something to cheer about and showed what we can do. The challenge for us now is to make that 65 minutes last 90 minutes against Stoke away."
