Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger: 'No concern over away form in Europa League'

Wenger: 'No concern over away form'

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger has backed his side to deliver a result in the second leg of their Europa League semi-final with Atletico Madrid.

The Gunners head into the contest in Spain currently behind in the tie on away goals, and the North London outfit have struggled on the road during domestic action this season.

However, Wenger feels that his players perform better in Europe, with wins having already being recorded over BATE Borisov, Partizan Belgrade, Ostersunds FK and AC Milan respectively.

At a press conference, the Frenchman told reporters: "In the Premier League yes, in Europe no.

"We have neglect a bit recently the Premier League away from home. Tomorrow is a game you have to focus on your performance, that is all."

Arsenal must score at least one goal in order to maintain hope of progressing through to the final in Lyon.
