Arsenal will be aiming to return to winning ways in the Premier League when they face Wolverhampton Wanderers at the Molineux Stadium today.
The Gunners registered an impressive 3-0 victory over Dinamo Zagreb in the Champions League. They need to carry the momentum into the Wolves game.
Ahead of the encounter, manager Mikel Arteta could make at least four changes to the XI.
Formation: 4-3-3
Predicted Line-up:
David Raya is an undisputed starter in goal and he will be eyeing another clean sheet.
In front of him, there could be two changes to the backline. Jakub Kiwior looked uncomfortable as the right centre-back. Jurrien Timber is most likely to partner Gabriel Magalhaes in central defence.
This would obviously mean Thomas Partey in the right-back position with Ben White yet to be fully fit after knee surgery. At left-back, we would prefer Riccardo Calafiori over Oleksandr Zinchenko.
Myles Lewis-Skelly picked up a minor knee injury against Aston Villa and may not be risked.
In midfield, we would stick with the same combination of Jorginho, Declan Rice and Martin Odegaard.
Rice and Odegaard were on the scoresheet in midweek and their goal contributions could be crucial going forward with Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Jesus on the sidelines.
There could be two changes in the final third. Raheem Sterling had another dreadful showing from the right wing. Arteta could go with Ethan Nwaneri in the position today.
There could be a straight swap with Leandro Trossard coming in for Gabriel Martinelli on the left wing. Kai Havertz has found form with goals in back-to-back games. He is poised to lead the line.
Predicted Arsenal line-up (4-3-3): Raya; Partey, Timber, Gabriel, Calafiori; Jorginho, Odegaard, Rice; Nwaneri, Havertz, Trossard.
