Arsenal vs Steaua Bucharest Champions League 2007-08: Preview and Live Score

Arsenal vs Steaua Bucharest match of Champions League 2007-2008 will take place on Emirates Stadium, the home ground of Arsenal, on 12 December. No doubt, the current season is going well for Arsenal. They are now leading in the point table of English premier league and have already confirmed their place in the knock out stage in Champions league H group. Romanian club Steaua Bucharest could not make any impression in Champions league this season. They have lost four matches out of five so far in the competition with a draw against Slavia Prague.

Steaua Bucharest has already been out of competition and Arsenal has already secured a place in the next round. So, naturally the will have less appeal to the fans. However, Arsenal will try to win the match get into the knock out stage as the group champion. At this moment, Arsenal stands second with 10 points, just two points behind the group leader Sevilla. On the other hand, Steaua Bucharest has nothing to lose in this competition as they have totally failed to show any impressive performance. So, they must try their best to come up with an impressive performance against Arsenal.

Arsenal, though leads in English premier league, has recently suffered a humiliating defeat to Middlesbrough, the first defeat of Arsenal this season in English premier league. Now, they must try to get an inspirational win over Steaua Bucharest in the home ground before their own fans. Moreover, Arsenal has a big match in English premier league against Chelsea on next Sunday. So, an excellent win will boost up their confidence level ahead of such a crucial match.

Arsenal defeated Steaua Bucharest in away match 1-0 and must play all out to get a big win this time around. They have not lost last 16 matches at home. So, Steaua Bucharest has to face strong challenge to resist Arsenal in the upcoming match at their home ground. On the other hand, Steaua Bucharest could not win any of their last 10 Champions league matches since their last victory over Dynamo Kiev in 2006. Steaua Bucharest now stands fourth in Romania’s Liga One point table. Steaua Bucharest has recently won their last domestic league match. So, they might be inspired well before they take on Arsenal.

Steaua Bucharest will miss their midfielder for his suspension. Besides, there is no major injury problem in the two teams. So, it is expected that both the teams will get the full strength for this match. However, I am not so sure if Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger includes the inform players for this match as the match literally has less importance. Rather he might think off resting some of his key players ahead of important next week match against Chelsea. However, Steaua Bucharest, I think, will not be bale to afford resting their key players against Arsenal.

It is obvious that Arsenal is favorite for this match and Steaua Bucharest has to show their best performance to outperform Arsenal in their home ground.
