Automatic Champions League progression will hand Arsenal huge bonus and a worst-case scenarioArsenal on the brink of Champions League knockout stageWith two games remaining, Arsenal are closing in on a Champions League knockout spot. They are currently three points ahead of Feyenoord and six clear of Stuttgart, needing just four points from their final three games to secure qualification. A win over Monaco on Wednesday would put them in a strong position to finish in the top eight, avoiding an extra knockout round and ensuring a less congested schedule. Reaching the last 16 would also bring significant financial rewards, with a guaranteed £9.27 million and the potential for further bonuses. However, with qualification not yet secured, Arteta faces the challenge of keeping his squad fit and firing on all cylinders in the final two group games.
