That's it, Gooners. You might as well start packing for Lyon already.

Yeah, there is the small matter of beating Atletico Madrid on their own patch, but trust us, everything is going to be fine. Your place in that Europa League final is as good as confirmed. Why? Well, take a look at your fellow Arsenal supporters, who seemed to have worked out why Arsene Wenger's men are destined to come out victorious tonight.... the kit. Yep, as desperate as it might seem to some, the fact Arsenal won't be turning out in their blue away kit in the Wanda Metropolitano is enough to convince some of their supporters that they're on their way to the final. Instead, they'll be wearing their predominantly grey third kit. Arsenal haven't done too well in their current away kit - losing their most recent outing in it while facing Manchester United at the weekend. The news that they wouldn't be wearing it tonight has given some of their supporters a bit of belief... even if it is a bit tongue in cheek. https://twitter.com/NickVann1987/status/992003502745497608
