Both Arsenal and London rivals Chelsea topped their respective groups, meaning they get to play their second legs at home.UEFA rules stipulate that the pair cannot play in the city on the same night and the Gunners were the team whose fixture was initially brought forward as UEFA ruled that, as FA Cup winners, Chelsea were given priority.2

Arsenal topped their Europa League group with five wins and a draw from their six games

In UEFA’s initial statement they said the Arsenal game would kick-off at 5pm on the Wednesday, which was met with criticism by fans.Lois Langton, chair of the Arsenal Independent Supporters’ Association, said: “The announcement that the home leg of Arsenal’s round of 32 tie will see a 5pm kick-off shows the scant regard UEFA holds for match-attending supporters and will undoubtedly impact on the attendance figures.”Once the new time and date had been confirmed, Langton added: “That news makes the change a little more palatable but the reality is that many working supporters will still struggle to arrive in time for kick-off.“The right and proper course of action is to restore the match to when it should be played – at 8pm on the Thursday evening.” Although kick-off times were two hours apart, both Arsenal and Chelsea last played at home on the same day as recently as December 2.Both clubs hosted their nearest neighbours in Premier League derbies as Chelsea beat Fulham 2-0 in a game that kicked off at midday, with Arsenal then winning 4-2 against Tottenham in a 2.05pm kick-off at the Emirates Stadium later that day.
