Arsenal vs. Marseille: Date, Time, Live Stream, TV Info and Preview

Arsenal will look to move one step closer to advancing to the Champions League knockout stage when they host French challenger Marseille on Tuesday at the Emirates. 

The Gunners have fared well in a loaded Group F to this point, and will remain at the top of the table with another victory over Marseille, who Arsenal beat 2-1 in France back in mid-September. 

While Arsenal eye a berth in the knockout stage, Marseille are just hoping to pick up some points before being eliminated next month. The Group F bottom dwellers are out of contention and have yet to earn a single point, let alone win a group match. What's more, Elie Baup's side have been outscored 10-4 in those four defeats.

Therefore, the pressure will fall on Arsene Wenger and company as they look to avoid a costly upset.

Here we'll get you ready with everything you need to know ahead of kick-off.

Top Storyline: Arsenal Closing in on Knockout Stage

The Gunners aren't out of the woods yet, but can almost ensure themselves a spot in the Round of 16 with a win over Marseille on Tuesday.

With Arsenal wrapping up group play in Naples against Napoli next month, Wenger's squad will be looking to set the tone from the outset and win comfortably to lock up three more points. Although the Premier League leaders have stumbled in recent matchups with Manchester United and Chelsea, they've been in quality form throughout the year and will obviously be up against a far less dangerous opponent this week. 

With more attacking threats and overall talent at their disposal, it's no wonder the Gunners are heavy favourites to continue their march to the knockout stage on Tuesday in London. 

Prediction 

Although Arsenal weren't dominant in their previous matchup with Marseille, the Gunners were dealing with several key injuries at the time, and should be chomping at the bit to turn in an even better performance the second time around.

Plus, the Gunners have been solid at home this season and are coming off an impressive 2-0 home win over Southampton on Saturday.

It's also important to remember that Marseille is playing for pride at this point. 

However, Arsenal are well aware of the task at hand and will surely take to the pitch with a sense of urgency in an effort to jump ahead quickly and bury their opponent.

Prediction: Arsenal 2, Marseille 0
