Fenerbache to rub shoulders with Arsenal



Arsenal face Turkish team Fenerbache in the last qualifying round for a spot in the champions league group stages. The Turkish side will fancy their chances against the North London club and coach Ersun Yanal can rely on the fire power of newly purchased Nigerian striker Emmanuel Emenike. Dirk Kuyt, Raul Meireles and Moussa Sow make up a dangerous opposition for the Gunners. A real test I reckon for Arsene Wenger and his troops. 

The Frenchman will curse his luck for meeting such an opponent and will need to pull his squad together to overcome the Turks. Even though I think Fenerbache stand a chance, Arsenal have way too much experience in this situation and will conjure a way to scrap through the group stages. The first leg will take place in Turkey on the 20th of August and the return leg will take place a week later.

Draw in full:

Dinamo Zagreb vs Austria Vienna

Ludogerets vs Basle

Plzen vs Maribor

Shakhtar Karagandy vs Celtic

Steaua Bucresti vs Legia Warsaw

Lyon vs Real Sociedad

Paco Ferreira vs Zenit St Petersburg

Schalke vs Metalist Kharkiv

PSV vs AC Milan
