Match Preview:

With top spot at stake in Group B, Arsenal travel to Olympiakos on the back of some domestic struggles on this, matchday 6 of the Champions League. A victory would see them finish top of the group, with qualification in the knockout stages already secure. The question remains - will the Gunners finish first or second?

The hosts on the night, Olympiakos are already eliminated, but are currently riding a 13 match unbeaten run to start the new domestic campaign. The English side have made a host of changes with qualification secured, as Arsene Wenger is tipping his hat to youngsters on the night, or players rarely seen on other occassions, such as Marouane Chamakh.

Can Arsenal get the win with a second-string side? Or will Olympiakos get the win at home?

2 mins: Olympiakos on the ball, trying to get an attack going down the right. They win a throw in and start from the back, as Roy Carroll punts the ball into the Arsenal half.

6 mins: Good run by Gervinho who does well to win the ball back after losing it. He makes a strong run toward the Olympiakos penalty area, he tries to play Chamakh in on goal, but its well defended by the Olympiakos defender.

9 mins: Meade gets fouled in his own half Machado and wins a free kick. It's taken quickly, but Olympiakos have the ball in their own half and attack down the left flank.

12 mins: Olympiakos with a strong run down the left again, as Djebbour does well to get to the left byline, he crosses low and hard into the area for Abdoun, but the Arsenal defence scramble it clear. Corner Olympiakos, from the left, again.

16 mins: What a chance for Ramsey! What a miss, oh my! Chamberlain with a slight cross from the right to the back post. It's headed down by Chamakh and the guests get a fortunate chance and it falls to Ramsey in the centre of the area, but he totally scuffs his shot, as his control really let him down. Should've been 1-0 to Arsenal, but its still deadlocked at 0-0.

20 mins: It's taken and Szczesny is called into action as the corner is drifted to the far post. The Polish keeper does well to block it away, as Rosicky then clears the line.

26 mins: Olympiakos on the ball again, as its played out wide to Manolas, who tries a shot from very well out and he skies it into the stands. He puts his hands up to apologize to his teammates. Dreadful shot that.

28 mins: After some great work from Gervinho to get the ball deep into the Olympiakos half, Rosicky is whistled for a foul on Fejsa. The Czech veteran appeals the call, but upon further review, it was indeed the right call by the referee.

@aka Not at all, especially after missing that sitter earlier in the first half. It was actually worse than a miss, what a flop!

38 mins: GOAL! Arsenal 1-0! Rosicky! Ramsey with some great work down the right, he gets into the area to the byline. He stops and finds Gervinho outside the area. The Ivorian then takes possession of the ball, makes a run down the right and cuts it back to find an onrushing Rosicky into the area, who slots it home past Carroll into the bottom left corner of the net.
