The Champions League holders believe the Gunners are the most difficult opponents they could have had.

Milan director Umberto Gandini said: “There were better draws.

“We got the most difficult side that we could have been given.

“But the history books are positive as we beat them in the European Super Cup in 1994 and I hope that augurs well.

“Nonetheless, Arsenal are an excellent side that reached the Final in Paris when they lost to Barcelona."
