Arsenal vs. Sheffield match: an inevitable surprise
After a dramatic 2-2 draw at Chelsea, it didn’t take long for Arsenal to get back on the winning path. The Gunners overwhelmed Sevilla 2-1 in the third match of the Champions League group stage, away from home. At Sanchez Pizjuan, Gabriel Jesus shone brightly. He provided the assist for Gabriel Martinelli’s opener and then scored himself. Nemanja Gudelj then only helped Sevilla shorten the score, but Arsenal succeeded in defending their victory.
With 3 points won, Arsenal have moved to the top of Group B of the Champions League in 2023/24. The Gunners now have 6 points from 3 matches, 1 point ahead of second-placed Lens.

They share the same number of points with City and are only two points behind Tottenham, who lead the table. In the early game of the tenth round, Tottenham are more likely to pick up all three points when playing at Crystal Palace. To keep up with neighboring city ranks, Arsenal were forced to earn all three points against Sheffield.
The home ground became Arsenal’s hope to secure maximum points in the round of 10. At home, Arsenal have gone unbeaten in six matches this season, including beating United, Manchester City, and PSV. The result of the head-to-head between the two teams also depends entirely on the Arsenal side. Accordingly, Arsenal have won four of the last six matches against Sheffield on all playing fields.

After continuously receiving defeats in the last five away matches of the Premier League, Sheffield have conceded at least two goals per game and only scored a total of three goals.

Unsurprisingly, Arsenal won against Sheffield both times in the 2020–21 season, with an aggregate score of 5-1 over two legs. The last time Sheffield beat Arsenal in London was back in 1971, and given the current disparity between the two teams, the chances of the visitors doing the same in a round-of-10 tie are almost impossible.
After the win over Sevilla, Arsenal paid a heavy price in terms of force. Jesus’ hamstring has beeninjured, injured, and his availability is unknown ahead of the game against Sheffield. If he is unable to play, Eddie Nketiah will be brought on as a substitute. Jurrien Timber and Thomas Partey are also recovering from injuries. Takehiro Tomiyasu could be moved to the left wing by Oleksandr Zinchenko, while competition between Aaron Ramsdale and David Raya continues for the starting spot.
Meanwhile, Sheffield also received sad news when Anel Ahmedhodzic suffered a hamstring injury in training. Ahmedhodzic, Chris Basham (ankle injury), Daniel Jebbison (ill), Max Lowe (ankle injury), Tom Davies (thigh), John Egan (ankle injury),, and Rhys Norrington-Davies (thigh) are all in recovery. While McBurnie’s ability to play is a big question mark,
