Arsenal has struggled over the last few weeks in the Premier League and those struggles have made themselves all the more preponderant in the UCL.
Their gunners currently sit in sixth place thanks to a few losses and draws in their last few weeks.
A rousing 5-2 destruction of Tottenham Hotspur reversed their fortunes this past weekend, but this team needs to win a game in the UCL to reinstate itself as a contender in Group B.
Prior to the 2-2 draw with Schake 04, Arsenal had a solid grip on second place, but obtaining one point in six matches has enabled Olympiakos to get back into contention and Arsenal is now required to win their match against the defending French Champs if they have hopes of continuing to the Round of 16. A win paired with an Olympiakos loss secures a spot for Arsenal.
Montpelier won the French League last year, but has been atrocious in 2012-13. They sit in 14th place with just three wins, five draws, and five losses. They are only two points out of a relegation spot, which really emphasizes their poor performance this season. The UCL has been no better for Montpelier as they have gained just one point after a 2-2 draw to Schalke.
Prediction: Arsenal should win at home. 3-1.
