There’s just one Arsenal vs Arsenal matchup, with France (William Saliba) to face Sweden (Viktor Gyokeres). So with nine national teams with an Arsenal international, Arsenal players will be involved in exactly half of upcoming last-32 games.

Gabriel Martinelli and Gabriel Magalhaes will take on Japan with Brazil, before Kai Havertz and Germany face Paraguay. Martin Odegaard and Norway will play the Ivory Coast, before that France-Sweden game later in the day.

Piero Hincapie and Ecuador’s last-gasp progression has earned them a match against Mexico, whilst Arsenal’s four England internationals (Eberechi Eze, Bukayo Saka, Declan Rice, and Noni Madueke) will face D.R. Congo.

Leandro Trossard and Belgium will take on Senegal, before Spain face Austria in the final last-32 match with potential Arsenal involvement, with David Raya, Mikel Merino, and Martin Zubimendi all available.
