Arsenal manager Unai Emery will face a familiar foe when the Gunners look to move a step closer to Europa League glory and a return to the Champions League at Rennes tomorrow morning (Singapore time). The mercurial talent of Hatem Ben Arfa has helped the mid-table Ligue 1...
He told French broadcaster RMC Sport:"They are expected to be good in these games. I know them well, I know they will create some problems.
"We trust our abilities and we know that we can qualify for the next round if we remain serious and play our game simply." Rennes may lie 10th in Ligue 1, but shocked a highly fancied Real Betis in the last 32 with a thrilling 6-4 aggregate win."Arsenal are a name that resonates throughout Europe. They will obviously be the big favourites."
Arsenal's struggles on the road in Emery's first season in charge should give the French side reason to believe. The Gunners have won just once away from home since last November, suffering an embarrassing 1-0 defeat by BATE Borisov in the last 32 before turning the tie around at the Emirates.
