Sevilla midfielder Renato insists his side are not intimidated by Arsenal ahead of their UEFA Champions League meeting, live on Sky Sports Xtra.

Sevilla travel to Emirates Stadium on Wednesday and Renato is adamant they will do so in a confident mood.

The Brazilian ace believes the Gunners lack firepower and feels Sevilla should be targeting top spot in Group H.

"Arsenal have a reputation for not scoring as many goals as they should," Renato told The Sun. "They often try to walk the ball into the net.

Lucky

"They always try to dribble past one more rival or make one more pass. I watched them against Manchester City and felt that.

"They create a lot but have some difficulties scoring. I hope it is the same against us.

"We were lucky to be drawn in a group with Arsenal. Theoretically there were stronger rivals, like Chelsea and Milan.

"The games against Arsenal will be very tough but it is undeniable we are in a weaker group than some. I think we can fight for first place."
