Bayer Leverkusen manager, Kasper Hjulmand has picked Arsenal as the best team in Europe at the moment.
The two teams face off in the Champions League last-16 first leg on Wednesday evening.
Mikel Arteta’s men arrive for the match, having won all their cup fixtures so far this season.
“Arsenal are perhaps the best team in Europe at the moment,” Hjulmand said.
“They finished first in the league phase of the Champions League and won all their games, scored the most goals and conceded the fewest.
“It’s one of the most difficult challenges, but we’re really looking forward to it! We want to enjoy big games like this together with our fans.
“Arsenal are the clear favourites. But we’ve already shown this season against many big teams like Manchester City, [Borussia] Dortmund and [RB] Leipzig that we can beat them. And as we all know, anything is possible in football.
“You just have to believe in it. This belief in yourself is extremely important. That’s why we’re going into the game with confidence, and we’ll give everything at home to get a good result for the second leg.”
