We’re back in Premier League action this week following the October international break, while our Under-18s and Women’s teams also have games to prepare for.

Here is everything you can expect on Arsenal.com over the coming week:

MONDAY/TUESDAY/WEDNESDAY

International duty continues for our Gunners who were selected to play for their countries.

We will be reporting on all of the UEFA Euro 2024 qualifiers and international friendlies that our players are involved in.

Keep an eye on Group C of the Euro 2024 qualifiers on Tuesday night as England (Nketiah, Ramsdale, Rice) face Italy, who are three points below them, while Ukraine (Zinchenko) take on Malta. 

Ukraine are currently level on points with Italy but have a lower goal difference, and only the top two teams can qualify.
