Bukayo Saka (RW) – Giving Bukayo Saka another rest tomorrow would likely have a detrimental impact on the teenager. The young winger is in a rich vein of form and too much time on the sidelines could lead to a dip in performance levels which no one wants to see. He should start.

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (ST) – Through the middle, with Ødegaard starting in the hole, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is the obvious candidate to start up top. He’ll be looking to continue to pick up form ahead of the crucial Europa League two-legged affair with Olympiacos.

Willian (LW) – And to the left of Auba, Willian looks set to start. The Brazilian brings a technical quality which Arteta seems to like from his left-midfielder in a 4-2-3-1 and after he played a key role in all three goals last week he should keep his spot.

After all, if things don’t go to plan, he could always be hooked for a Nicolas Pépé who is in red hot form right now.
