Arsenal forward Lukas Podolski feels his side are still not certain about qualifying for the knockout round of the Champions League, following their 2-1 win over Anderlecht last night.
The Gunners, who fell behind to Andy Najar’s 71st-minute strike, needed two late goals, from Kieran Gibbs and Podolski, to come out with the full three points from Belgium.
The win helped Arsenal to consolidate second spot in Group D with six points from three games, three behind leaders Borussia Dortmund, while Anderlecht and Galatasaray have one point each.
And Podolski believes another win against the Belgian outfit in the return fixture at the Emirates Stadium next month will guarantee Arsenal’s progression to the next round.
"We still have three games left and nothing is certain yet”, he told Arsenal Player.

“We have an important game against Anderlecht at home and if we win that then I think we can go through."
Podolski, who joined Arsenal from 1.FC Koln in 2012, has a further two years left on his present contract with the club.
The 29-year-old has thus far amassed 75 appearances in all competitions for the Emirates Stadium outfit, scoring 29 times.
