Arsenal starting XI: Runarsson; Cedric, Chambers, Mustafi, Mari, Maitland-Niles; Pepe, Elneny, Willock, Smith Rowe; Nketiah.

Arsenal substitutes: Macey, Hein, Saka, Ceballos, Holding, Balogun, Cottrell, Azeez.

Arsenal finish off their Europa League group stage campaign this evening as they head to take on Dundalk in Ireland.

The Gunners are already through to the next round after five wins in a row in the Europa League, so Mikel Arteta has rotated his side tonight.

Runar Runarsson starts in goal tonight, with Calum Chambers, Shkodran Mustafi and Pablo Mari the three centre backs ahead of him.

Cedric Soares and Ainsley Maitland-Niles will feature as the wing backs, with Mohamed Elneny and Joe Willock in central midfield.

Nicolas Pepe starts as his Premier League suspension nears its end, with Emile Smith Rowe on the left, working behind Eddie Nketiah.

Youngsters Folarin Balogun, Ben Cottrell and Miguel Azeez are all named on the bench, alongside Matt Macey and Karl Hein.

First-team players Bukayo Saka, Dani Ceballos and Rob Holding join them as substitutes.
