On September 20, in the first round of the UEFA Champions League, Arsenal drew 0-0 away against Atalanta. The Gunners have struggled in their last four away matches against Italian teams in the UEFA Champions League, managing one draw, three losses, and failing to score a single goal.
The downturn for the Gunners when facing Serie A teams on the road began in the 2008-09 season during the Round of 16, where Arsenal lost 0-1 away to Roma; in the 2011-12 season, in the first leg of the Round of 16, Arsenal suffered a 0-4 defeat to AC Milan; in the 2013-14 UEFA Champions League group stage, Arsenal lost 0-2 away to Napoli.
In this season’s first round of the UEFA Champions League, Arsenal faced off against last season’s Europa League champions, Atalanta, and once again struggled to find the back of the net, resulting in a frustrating 0-0 draw.
This has left Arsenal with an embarrassing record of one draw and three losses without scoring a single goal in their last four away matches against Italian teams in the UEFA Champions League, seemingly falling under the spell of “Italy Anxiety.” However, bringing back one point from the first away match is a result that can be considered acceptable for Arsenal.
