Declan Rice, Thomas Partey and Martin Odegaard should line up in midfield. With Bukayo Saka, Kai Havertz and Gabriel Martinelli up front. Although Mikel Arteta could be tempted to bring in Leandro Trossard against his former club. After he came off the bench to hit the opener against Villa.

Hurzeler, meanwhile, will largely revert back to ufabet https://ufabet999.app the side that beat United last weekend, meaning in-form ex-Gunner Danny Welbeck will start up front.

Welbeck has caught the eye for Brighton early on in the season, scoring in both of their wins, while the former Arsenal man also got an assist in the 3-0 victory over Everton.

Arsenal won 2-0 at Villa on Saturday despite the hosts having more shots (11) than the Gunners’ total of nine.
