Arsenal expect Eze in Champions League to feature despite minor injuryPhoto by Paul Harding/Getty ImagesEberechi Eze is expected to be available for Arsenal’s Champions League trip to Slavia Prague despite managing a minor injury.The Evening Standard reports that the problem is not expected to keep the England international out on Wednesday evening, with Eze tipped to start on the left of Arsenal’s attack.Christos Tzolis has only recently returned from a hamstring problem, and he is unlikely to start twice in four days.There could also be a European milestone at stake for Eze.According to Arsenal’s official match preview, he could become the first Englishman to score in three consecutive European Cup appearances for the club since Ray Kennedy, who scored in four successive appearances during the 1971/72 campaign.Photo by Aubrey Hart/Express/Getty ImagesThe immediate priority, though, is maintaining Arsenal’s unbeaten Champions League campaign against a Slavia side arriving in strong domestic form.They are seven points clear in the Czech league after 13 matches and beat Jablonec 5-0 away on Saturday. Their European campaign has been less productive, however, with just one point from their opening three league-phase fixtures.Photo by Julian Finney/Getty Images
