Who's playing? Basel wants to end their UEFA Champions League campaign on a high when they host Arsenal on Tuesday. The Swiss team hasn't been able to win a single match in the competition, but a win against the English side would give them a good excuse to celebrate, as they would enter the UEFA Europa League if Ludogorets doesn't shock PSG.
What time? Tuesday, December 6th, at 11:45 PST/ 13:45 CST/ 14:45 EST/ 19:45 GMT/ 20:45 CEST.
What stadium? St. Jakob Park, located in the city of Basel, will be the venue hosting this match. This stadium has an all-seated capacity of 38,512 fans.

Team news
The hosts have three injury doubts: Jean-Paul Boetius, Manuel Akanji and Kevin Bua. Even if they can't feature, coach Urs Fischer might want to rely on Seydou Doumbia to end his goal scoring drought on the competition.
The visiting side will have to deal with numerous injuries, considering the absences of such players as Hector Bellerin, Mathieu Debuchy and possibly, Olivier Giroud. Francis Coquelin will also have to watch the game at home after being suspended.
Two curious elements will take place on Tuesday, as brothers Taulant and Granit Xhaka face each other in their second UEFA-sanctioned match this year, while Mohammed Elneny returns to the place he once called home.
