'We will try': Slavia Prague boss hoping to break Arsenal clean sheet streak in Champions League clash | OneFootball

The Gunners could set a club record if they do not concede in Czechia

Slavia Prague manager Jindrich Trpisovsky has set his sights on breaking Arsenal’s clean sheet streak ahead of hosting the Gunners in the Champions League.

Speaking ahead of the tie, Trpisovsky acknowledged that Slavia have their work cut out for them.

"Of course, you don't have the chance to see all the teams in the world right now, but from my point of view, this is the best team with the best sporting form. The most balanced,” he said.

“If you look at that team in any match, just look at [Arsenal’s 4-0 home win over Atletico Madrid], the way they play, they are simply complex.

“When we talk about any game activity or aspect, I will speak in superlatives.”

"Arsenal is really very complete and it's hard to find any (weakness). Plus, they have great player replacements. They are absolutely fine. They lead the Premier League, the best league in the world, and it shows in them.

He continued, adding that he would be thrilled for Slavia to get on the scoresheet against the Gunners.

"It's a reward for the fans when you go up against such a giant that you might get a chance or that player scores a goal.

“(Slavia defender Jan Boril) keeps talking about how he scored against Barcelona. For those guys, that means a lot for their careers. So we'll try to do that."
