Serbian giants Red Star Belgrade will be counting on striker Richmond Boakye for victory against giants Arsenal on Thursday in the Europa League.

The Ghana international has scored eight goals in UEFA's second-tier competition and will be relied upon.

His solitary strike earned Red Star a 1-0 win at FC Cologne in the second Group match.

Red Star have made an excellent start to the 2017-18 campaign, conceding just two goals in 12 Serbian top-flight fixtures to date.

Arsenal have made several changes to their squad for their first Europa League group fixtures for two decades, with young hopefuls such as Joe Willock, Reiss Nelson, Ainsley Maitland-Niles, Eddie Nketiah and Marcus McGuane all playing some part in an entertaining 4-2 triumph against BATE Borisov.
