When you have Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Alexandre Lacazette in your ranks, you always have a chance.

Once again, Aubameyang and Lacazette more than made up for Arsenal's defensive weaknesses by giving Arsenal a 3-1 victory over Valencia in the first leg of the Europa League semifinal.

Arsenal, nervous and a prey to loss of confidence, was delayed in the UAE but Lacazette scored twice in the first period before Aubameyang scored what could prove to be a vital goal in the 90th minute .

The two men forged a deadly partnership for the Gunners. They have scored 43 goals this season as the club fights to rank in the top four and win the Europa League glory at the end of the season.

But what is their recipe for success? The answer is simple: since the arrival of Aubameyang, the duo of charismatic attacks immediately hit the ground and became the best friend on the ground.

Arsenal's 3-0 win over Stoke at home last season was marked by huge success.

With Aubameyang on a hat trick, the Gabonese international missed the opportunity by allowing Lacazette, timid for the goal, to get up and take the penalty to score 3-0.

The French had missed all eight previous Arsenal matches, all competitions, because of a knee injury. He had scored only one goal in the Premier League since mid-December.

"I know that Alexandre Lacazette is back [from injury] and I had already scored twice, so I knew it would be good for his confidence, "Aubameyang said after the match.

This is the secret of a brilliant attack duo, ready to put his personal desires aside to help his teammates and his team in the long run. And this is paying off this season.

Aubameyang has scored 25 times this season and has provided seven badists, while Lacazette has 18 goals and 10 badists to his credit. The deadly duo of 109 million pounds delivers and shoots at full speed.

Their relationship on and off the field is contagious and this clearly affects their teammates. The atmosphere in the camp is as good as it has been for a long time, as they seek to return to the Champions League.

When Aubameyang offered Arsene Wenger 56 million pounds as a starting gift to the club, it was feared that he could move Lacazette away from the starting group after a rather difficult first season.

Former Ligue 1 rival Lacazette had arrived at London Colney to knock out the Frenchman.

But the former Saint-Etienne and the Lyon striker immediately put aside their differences before forging their special tie to become the favorites of the Emirates fans.

"I love him and he's a great guy. We have such a good feeling between us, "said Aubameyang about their friendship.

& # 39; C & # 39; was really nice [playing with Lacazette]. think we did a lot of runs, with a lot of effort for the team, and we worked a lot and of course, we are happy when we play together because we feel so good. It was cool.

"When I arrived at Arsenal, he was here and he came to see me and spoke to me. Now we are fine, we have the same vision of football and I love it. It's a good guy.

"I think it is good between us, that it is not a bad rivalry, we are friends when one is fine, the other is happy and it is the most important thing, do well, "he concluded.

Their positive attitude and their charismatic personalities bind them off the field, but they both offer something very different and their unique attributes can not be emphasized enough.

They both scored points week after week and brought Arsenal back to the European elite and they could do it well.

Aubameyang is a top scorer, scoring 35 goals in 61 games for the North London squad since joining Borussia Dortmund in January 2018.

The exuberant 29-year-old is a poacher, always in the right place at the right time and remains in the Golden Boot race with 19 Premier League goals this season under Unai Emery.

But while Lacazette still delivers the goals to Arsenal, the 27-year-old may offer more quality. His playing, his creativity and his pace of work all over the field are unparalleled and he has more than seduced the faithful of the Gunners. This was further emphasized on Friday when he crowned the club's year-round player – elected by his supporters.

Arsenal 's defenders may not be on the same wavelength this season as they are tackling Emery' s tactics, but the two attacking stars are far more than just delivery men.

After three consecutive defeats in the Premier League, the chances of Arsenal did not look very good, but when Aubameyang and Lacazette are about to turn, there is still a chance to turn the tide.

Perhaps the Arsenal duo could offer the club what it wants at the end of the season: football in the Champions League.

Both men will try desperately to seal the Champions League for Arsenal. They could crown the match with their famous celebratory handshake in Baku at the end of May.
