Arsenal, who lost 2-1 to Manchester United on Saturday, can guarantee their own qualification with a win tonight.

When the sides met in September, Borussia swept the Gunners aside as Ciro Immobile and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang scored in a 2-0 victory at the Westfalenstadion.

For those wanting to emulate Dortmund's star-studded squad, the nine football pitches at Regent's Park can be hired for £60.00 each.
