Unai Emery has left Mesut Ozil out of the squad tonight while Kieran Tierney is also surprisingly left back in north London despite returning to full fitness. Sead Kolasinac starts in defence while Calum Chambers also keeps his place after an excellent performance last week.

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang leads the Arsenal attack with Nicolas Pepe and Bukayo Saka offering support. Granit Xhaka starts in midfield along with Matteo Guendouzi. Lucas Torreira also starts ahead of Dani Ceballos in midfield.
