Arsenal are in pole position in Group B of the Champions League and require just one point to secure their pass to the knockouts when they host Lens at the Emirates Stadium on Wednesday.
Mikel Arteta's men won back-to-back games against Sevilla in the group to gather a total of nine points that had already assured the Gunners of at least the Europa League knockout playoffs.
Whereas Lens faced their only defeat of their European campaign as Franck Haise's side went down 1-0 against PSV the last time out.
