Arsenal get Potter's Ostersund in Europa League

Arsenal have drawn Ostersund in their Europa League knockout round.

The Gunners will face Ostersund in the last-32 of the Europa League.

The first leg, to be played at Jamtkraft Arena, will take place on on Thursday, February 15 with the return match on Thursday, February 22.

Swedish side Ostersunds are managed by Englishman Graham Potter, who has taken them from the fourth division to the top-ranked Allsvenskan in six years, and qualified for the Europa League by winning their domestic cup last season.

Arsenal won their group with something to spare despite fielding a reserve-strength side in every fixture and it will be interesting to see how Arsene Wenger approach changes, if at all, when the competition resumes in February.
