Arsenal can all but secure their spot in the Europa League knockout stages with a win over Molde on Thursday.
The Gunners have flattered to deceive at times in the Premier League this season but have a perfect record in Europe.
A win in Norway will open up a six-point gap over Molde with two games to play, but the hosts have not lost at home in this competition since 2015.
Date, time and venue
Molde vs Arsenal is scheduled for an 5.55pm GMT kick-off on Thursday, November 26, 2020.
The match will be held behind closed doors at Aker Stadion.

Team news
There remain doubts over Thomas Partey’s fitness, though he is unlikely to travel with Arsenal facing Wolves on Sunday.
Emile Smith Rowe, Miguel Azeez, Ben Cottrell and Folarin Balogun, who made his debut against Dundalk, have all made the trip to Norway.
The likes of Kieran Tierney, Skhodran Mustafi and Granit Xhaka were also pictured. Alex Runarsson will start in goal.
Prediction: Molde 0-2 Arsenal
The Gunners made easy work of Molde in the reverse fixture earlier this month, despite many changes, and should do so again in Norway.
