Arsenal vs Shakhtar Donetsk live stream: How to watch Champions League game online and on TV, team news

The Arsenal vs Shakhtar Donetsk live stream is a mouthwatering Champions League clash as the Gunners aim to maintain their unbeaten start — and you can watch it from anywhere with a VPN.

The Gunners are unbeaten in Europe so far, most notably beating PSG here at the Emirates last time out. There were some doubts whether Arteta's defensive approach would work against elite sides but the Gunners ran out 2-0 winners. Can they climb the table with another win today?

Shakhtar are yet to win in this year's rejigged Champions League. After a goalless draw against Bologna, they lost 3-0 away to Atalanta – a team that also took points off Arsenal last month. This trip to London represents the Ukrainian side's biggest test so far, so just avoiding defeat would represent success.

It promises to be a thrilling encounter, so read on to find out how to watch the Arsenal vs Shakhtar Donetsk live stream wherever you are.
