Slavia Prague prepare to host Arsenal in the UEFA Champions League with a daunting statistic hanging over the Czech side: they have failed to win any of their last 22 matches in the competition.
The winless run stretches across multiple campaigns and leaves Slavia searching for their first Champions League victory since the 2019-20 season. Arsenal arrive as heavy favourites, looking to consolidate their position in the group.
The match at Eden Arena represents a chance for Slavia to end a drought that has become a defining feature of their recent European history. A draw would extend the streak to 23 games; a defeat would deepen the gloom around a club that once reached the Europa League quarter-finals.
