Arsenal vs. Marseille isn't exactly an earth-shattering matchup, but after a crazy series of events in which Borussia Dortmund inexplicably failed to beat everyone in their path that historians are calling the '2011/12 season' it looks like this is a battle for the top of Group F. An Arsenal win here would put the Gunners at ten points and in prime position to win the group. There's no reason whatsoever that they can't get one.
