Leipzig Faces PSV In Champions League Opener After Squad Changes
RB Leipzig and PSV Eindhoven meet in the Champions League opener at the Red Bull Arena, with both clubs preparing their lineups on Tuesday as reported by Livescore. Leipzig coach Martin Demichelis highlighted Antonio Nusa's strong start to the season.
According to Sports Yahoo, Nusa has recorded four goals and three assists in seven appearances across all competitions for Leipzig. Demichelis discussed the Norwegian winger before the match against PSV.
"I think Antonio has taken another step forward. I'm really pleased for him," said Martin Demichelis, head coach of RB Leipzig.
Demichelis added that he wants Nusa to maintain his current form while avoiding excessive praise. The Leipzig manager continued discussing the winger's development ahead of the European fixture.
"In my opinion, he's one of the best wingers in Europe right now. But I don't want to praise him too much. I just hope he keeps playing the way he has been," said Martin Demichelis, head coach of RB Leipzig.
PSV coach Peter Bosz made multiple changes after a 2-0 win over sc Heerenveen, according to Livescore. Matej Kovar started in goal, while Lutsharel Geertruida and Armando Obispo formed the central defense.
PSV's lineup also included Mauro Júnior, Kodai Sano and Sven Mijnans in midfield, with Ivan Perisic, Ruben van Bommel and Guus Til in attacking roles, according to Livescore.
Elsewhere, Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta addressed Bruno Guimaraes after the midfielder scored two goals that helped the team collect points following his difficult league debut against Brighton, according to BBC Sport.
"He wasn't at that level against Brighton, and this is the level for Arsenal. Every week, every game, every minute, every action, you have to be at that level. That's what we have to demand.
This is what I demand of myself and I'm going to demand the same with the players. If we do that, he will raise the standards and we will be a better team," said Mikel Arteta, Arsenal manager.
