Arsenal vs Shakhtar LIVE: Champions League score and updates as Gabriel Jesus starts after Bournemouth defeat

17 mins: Promising from Shakhtar.

The move the ball brilliantly to feed it up to Danylo Sikan. He runs towards the box and draws in a couple of defenders before squaring a pass over to Eguinaldo.

He shoots but a deflection takes the ball out for a corner and Arsenal defend it well.

15 mins: Quarter of an hour played and the match has settled into a steady tempo. Declan Rice is doing a lot of work in midfield trying to link up play and provide an option with runs into the box.

Martinelli swings a cross in from the left but Havertz can’t get a head to the ball.

12 mins: Arsenal have started this game strongly and have controlled possession. They’re utilising the wide areas with Martinelli and Jesus sticking close to the touch lines.

The thought process is to spread the Ukranian defence and attempt to get in behind with Kai Havertz and Leandro Trossard penetrating from the centre.

Shakhtar are making it tough with a back five defence though.

9 mins: Eguinaldo tries to scuttle into Arsenal’s box in a rare forward move from the visitors but he’s hounded away on the edge of the box by William Saliba and Gabriel.

The Gunners turn over possession and immediatel push Shakhtar back into their own final third.

6 mins: Strong pressure from Kai Havertz means Ben White can intercept a pass high up the pitch. He rolls it over to Leandro Trossard who flicks one round the corner for Havertz on his way into the box.

A couple of touches later and Arsenal win another corner. The first one is nodded behind for a second attempt. Trossard flicks the set piece to the near post where the ball is guided down towards Riccardo Calafiori.

He’s leaning back as he takes the shot and lifts his effort voer the crossbar!

3 mins: After the corner is defended, Declan Rice sprays the ball across the pitch and finds Gabriel Jesus on the right wing. Arsenal’s captain attempts to feed a pass through to Kai Havertz but the ball is blocked.

Jesus receives it back and lays off to Ben White who gets taken out. Or so he thinks, the referee believes otherwise and lets play go on with Shakhtar looking to counter-attack.

The visitors get the ball rolling and boot it long over to the right side of the pitch. The ball comes all the way through to David Raya and Arsenal sweep quickly up the pitch.

They feed Gabriel Martinelli on the left wing and the brazilian scurries into the box and wins a corner.

The players are waiting in the tunnel ready to head out at the Emirates.

Gabriel Jesus is leading the Gunners tonight in the absence of Martin Odegaard and Bukayo Saka. Will Arsenal get back to winning ways?

We’re about to find out…

Getting ready for tonight’s action:

After slipping to a 2-0 Premier League defeat at Bournemouth on Saturday, when defender William Saliba was shown a controversial red card in the first half to see their unbeaten start abruptly end.

Arsenal have the chance to get themselves back on track against Shakhtar Donetsk at the Emirates Stadium on Tuesday night. Mikel Arteta’s side have impressed in Europe so far, beating Paris St Germain in the last round of games.

Shakhtar, meanwhile, are yet to score in their two Champions League fixtures – but come to London on the back of successive wins in the Ukrainian Premier League.
