Robin van Persie has warned Arsenal not to underestimate Olympiakos in tonight's Champions League clash at the Emirates Stadium.
Arsene Wenger's team are favourites to qualify from Group H as winners after being drawn with Olympiakos, Standard Liege and AZ Alkmaar. But the Gunners almost slipped up in their first match as Liege raced into a two-goal lead against them within five minutes in Belgium. Arsenal eventually fought back to win 3-2 win but van Persie believes another careless display against Olympiakos may prove costly.
"It is a good draw for us name wise, but as a player you need to produce in every game because our opponents look at it from a different point of view," Van Persie told Arsenal's magazine.
"They will give all they have against us. We need to be ready for that because we all know how football works when you do not give 100 percent any team can beat you. When you don't do everything, you are gone.
We'll do that and have a good chance of going through," added the 26-year-old Dutch star.
Van Persie was Arsenal's leading scorer last year with 20 goals from 44 appearances.
