Arsenal will be back in Champions League action on Wednesday, as they search for a second straight victory to maintain their spot in the top eight.
The Gunners have found scoring goals from open play challenging in recent weeks, with each of their last three efforts being registered from set-pieces.
Monaco could present a good challenge for Arsenal at the Emirates on Wednesday. The Ligue 1 side had gone four without defeat in the Champions League before losing on matchday five.

Arsenal vs. Monaco Prediction
Monaco certainly have the attacking players to hurt Arsenal at the Emirates this weekend, and it is somewhat of a shock to see them available at such a big price, given their excellent record against English teams.
The Gunners will benefit from Monaco’s leaky defensive record, but the Ligue 1 side could provide better value on the spread.
