Forwards
Bukayo Saka (RW) – After both Willian and Nicolas Pépé plainly justified Arteta’s recent decision to omit them from his starting XI, Saka’s starting birth on the right flank remains secure. Like Smith Rowe, his absence was felt emphatically on Saturday. Hopefully he can carry on his strong goal scoring form tomorrow.
Alexandre Lacazette (ST) – Like Saka, Lacazette’s deputy, Eddie Nketiah, did nothing to suggest he should displace the Frenchman in the Premier League side. Lacazette will therefore return to the side and look to return to winning ways after failing to notch in consecutive league games.

Gabriel Martinelli (LW) – With club captain Aubameyang likely to remain unavailable tomorrow, Gabriel Martinelli should keep his place on the left flank. He was brought off after 60 minutes on the weekend so should be fresh enough to start again on Tuesday evening.
