Confirmed teams: Arsenal v Vitoria: Bellerin starts, still no Ozil in squad
Arsenal continue their Europa League campaign when we take on Vitoria SC at the Emirates this evening.
Unai Emery has once again left Mesut Ozil out of the squad tonight and the situation has now become ridiculous. Hector Bellerin does come into the side as he starts at right-back while Kieran Tierney lines-up on the opposite side of defence.
Rob Holding and Shkodran Mustafi start in the middle of the back four while Lucas Torreira is joined by Joe Willock and Emile Smith Rowe in midfield. Matteo Guendouzi and Dani Ceballos are named on the bench.
Alexandre Lacazette leads the line up front with Gabriel Martinelli in support while Ainsley Maitland-Niles also gets a recall.
Here are the line-ups:
Arsenal
Martinez; Bellerin, Mustafi, Holding, Tierney; Maitland-Niles, Torreira, Willock; Smith Rowe, Lacazette, Martinelli.
Subs: Leno, Ceballos, Pepe, Chambers, Guendouzi, Kolasinac, Saka
Vitoria
Silva, Garcia, Venancio, Tapsoba, Hanin, Almeida, Agu, Poha, Edwards, Duarte, Davidson
Subs: Douglas, Henrique, Bonatini, Rochinha, Al Musrati, Pereira, Pepe
