Soo into the last 16. Arsenal will play French side Rennes in the last 16 of the Europa League. Rennes are 11th in Ligue 1. Looks a pretty good draw to me. No long flights to Eastern Europe and have avoided the tougher draws like Napoli/Chelsea. Lacazette will be banned for both legs. Rennes v Arsenal Thursday, March 7 Kick-off: 5.55pm (UK time) To be played at Roazhon Park, France Arsenal v Rennes Thursday, March 14 Kick-off: 8pm (UK time) To be played at Emirates Stadium
I'm glad they switched the two legs around, originally we had a home tie first up, but due to Chelsea drawing a home tie on the same day the moved us. I think it's a big advantage as always playing the home leg last, just hope we can come away from Rennes with an away goal.
