Arsenal go with Bernd Leno in goal tonight, and Hector Bellerin makes a surprise return to the starting XI at right back.
Rob Holding and Gabriel Magalhaes continue at centre back with David Luiz out injured, whilst Cedric Soares deputises for Kieran Tierney at left back.
Granit Xhaka returns to the side and will partner Thomas Partey in midfield, whilst Emile Smith Rowe features as the number 10 with Martin Odegaarrd out.
Bukayo Saka is passed fit to play on the right flank, with Willian starting on the left, supporting lone striker Alexandre Lacazette.
That means Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Nicolas Pepe are both only on the bench having struggled against Liverpool at the weekend.
Miguel Azeez is handed a role on the bench tonight, with young left back Joel Lopez also a substitute to help cover for Tierney’s injury.
Mat Ryan, Karl Hein, Dani Ceballos, Pablo Mari, Reiss Nelson, Mohamed Elneny, Eddie Nketiah and Gabriel Martinelli make up the rest of the bench tonight.
