Arsenal vs. PSG 2016: Start time, live TV schedule, and 3 things to know

Arsenal will look to hold onto Group A’s top spot when they are visited by Paris Saint-Germain on Wednesday.

The Champions League group stages have so far been a breeze for Arsenal and Paris Saint-Germain, who have both picked up 10 points from their first four matches. Goal difference currently keeps the Gunners clear of the French giants at the top of the group, though the Parisians will look to overhaul their deficit when they make the trip to the Emirates Stadium for Wednesday's high-profile clash.

Of course, with both sides having already guaranteed their place in the knockout stages, it’s not going to be as bitterly contested a fixture as it would be in the knockout stages. But, with the group winner likely to cement themselves an easier game in the next round, PSG will still be desperate to overtake Arsène Wenger’s men and nick the group’s top spot.

Three big things to know

1. Barcelona’s Lionel Messi is the Champions League’s current top scorer, but both Arsenal and PSG have men tied for second place. Mesut Özil has chipped in with four for the former, while Edinson Cavani -- who is enjoying one of the best seasons of his career to date -- has scored just as many.

2. Arsenal will have to do without talented young right back Héctor Bellerín, who will miss the next month with an ankle injury. They should otherwise have a full-strength team available. PSG, meanwhile, are likely to be without midfielder Adrien Rabiot, who picked up a hamstring problem over the international break.

3. PSG last paid a visit to Arsenal when they played at Highbury, back in the second leg of the Cup Winners’ Cup semifinal in 1994. On that occasion they lost 1-0 in London, sealing a 2-1 aggregate defeat. The Gunners went on to beat Parma 1-0 in the final in Copenhagen.
