Clarence Seedorf believes the experience and cunning of Milan will see Arsenal eliminated from the UEFA Champions League.

The Gunners host Milan at Emirates Stadium for the first leg of their last 16 Champions League clash on Wednesday as Arsene Wenger's young side go in search of their first European Cup success.

However, Milan midfielder Seedorf - who won the competition with the Italian giants last season - believes his side will prove too strong for Arsenal over two legs.

"In my view, although Arsenal are one of the best teams in Europe and have been playing very well lately, they lack experience," Seedorf said in the Sunday Mirror.
