Arsenal game is like an FA Cup third-round tie, says Ostersund boss Graham Potter as he plots 'biggest' career win in Europa League clash

Ostersund boss Graham Potter has likened the Swedish club's Europa League clash with Arsenal to a traditional third-round FA Cup tie.

The Gunners travel to snowy Sweden on Thursday looking to set themselves up for progression into the last 16 of the competition.

In their way are Ostersund, managed by Englishman Potter, who have been on a fairytale adventure from lower-league minnows to the surprise package of the Europa League.
