Explained: Why Arsenal will wear unusual kit combination for Champions League last-16 clash with PSV

Mikel Arteta's side will line up wearing their standard away shirt for the first leg clash in Eindhoven, but the black jersey will be paired with the white shorts they wear during home matches.

The change is down to PSV's home kit, which combines their famous red and white shirt with black shorts. The clash means that at least one part of Arsenal's home or away kit would result in a clash with the home team's.

A similar issue occurred during a 2022 clash between PSV and Arsenal. Arteta's side had to make a kit swap for that Europa League clash, too.

After their midweek clash against PSV, the north London side will take on Manchester United in the Premier League on Sunday.
