IN: Leandro Trossard - OUT: Gabriel Martinelli

Martinelli didn't have the best of luck in the first leg, so he should play the game today and afford the start to Leandro Trossard. Obviously, Trossard got the goal in the 1st leg but it wasn't just this moment where he impressed.

Like Jesus, Trossard brought a fresh burst of energy to the game, which was lacking with Martinelli on the pitch. Playing Trossard from the first whistle could be absolutely key as he seems to shine in the Champions League this season and he is certainly a player who can be relied on for the big occasion, which this match certainly is.

Besides, having Martinelli as an option to come off the bench is not the worst backup plan in the world. After all, Martinelli could excel against tired Bayern Munich legs, particularly since Arsenal plan to push their defence right until the final whistle.
