Arsenal can move back into the top four with a win over Leicester City at the King Power this afternoon.

Mesut Ozil isn’t in the squad due to a foot injury so Joe Willock comes in to the squad. Unai Emery has stuck with a back four but Laurent Koscielny drops to the bench with Shkodran Mustafi starting alongside Sokratis.

Sead Kolasinac comes in for Nacho Monreal – who isn’t in the match-day squad due to a calf issue – at left-back and Henrikh Mkhitaryan and Alex Iwobi support Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Alexandre Lacazette in attack.

These are the teams for the game:

Leicester

Schmeichel, Barbosa Pereira, Evans, Maguire, Chilwell, Choudhury, Albrighton, Tielemans, Ndidi, Maddison, Vardy.

Subs: Soyuncu, Gray, Iheanacho, Ward, Barnes, Mendy, Fuchs

Arsenal

Leno, Maitland-Niles, Mustafi, Papastathopoulos, Kolasinac, Mkhitaryan, Torreira, Xhaka, Iwobi, Aubameyang, Lacazette

Subs: Cech, Elneny, Koscielny, Mavropanos, Guendouzi, Nketiah, Willock
