2. Can Marquinhos continue his impressive form?

With Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Martinelli sure to be rested for the upcoming clash, Marquinhos will be handed a starting role on Thursday night. Against FC Zurich, on his senior debut, he was scintillating as he opened the scoring and set up Eddie Nketiah for the winner.

With Smith-Rowe out, Arsenal's options in attack look a little light beyond the starters.

Big opportunities for Reiss Nelson and Marquinhos to kick on.
