Holtby confident Schalke can do Arsenal double

Lewis Holtby suggests that Schalke can again beat Arsenal in the Champions League this week.

The German club host the Gunners tomorrow night following their win at the Emirates a fortnight ago and midfielder Holtby is of the belief that he and his teammates can again do the job.

"I think that Arsenal are a little bit resentful about us stealing three points on their home territory. But we are wary and well-prepared," he told the club's official website.

"We only concentrate on tomorrow. The form of the day could be a deciding factor, one mistake can immediately be punished.

"It will be a very good game I think," he continued.

"The thing [Veltins-Arena] will be sold-out and at the moment we are still table-toppers [in Group B], so we have to light the fire from the beginning and show [Arsenal] that we are the landlords. Then we will see the result."
