According to Arsenal legend Ray Parlour, the team's ability to score first will be crucial in determining their chances of success. He believes that players Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Martinelli have the potential to grab the opening goal in Paris.
Parlour also highlighted the importance of midfielder Thomas Partey, who will return for the second leg after missing the first match. He emphasized that Partey's presence in the midfield will be key to the team's success, as he can help Arsenal cope with PSG's high press and win back possession.
Additionally, Parlour pointed out that Arsenal's away record in Europe this season has been impressive, with victories in Madrid and against PSV Eindhoven. He believes that the team's experience in winning against top opponents will give them confidence in their ability to succeed in Paris.
Parlour also praised the performance of midfielder Alex Merino, who has been doing a good job as the number 9. He believes that Merino's ability to cause problems for PSG's defense will be important in the second leg.
