Arsenal are back in action this afternoon as they take on AC Milan in the Dubai Super Cup.

The Gunners beat Lyon last week with Mikel Arteta’s men gearing up for the Premier League’s return later this month.

A host of players are still unavailable due to the World Cup but today’s game gives Arsenal a chance to gain some sharpness.

Karl Hein starts in goal this afternoon with Aaron Ramsdale and Matt Turner unavailable.

Ben White starts at right back, making his first appearance since leaving the England camp for personal reasons.

Rob Holding and Gabriel Magalhaes are the centre back pairing with Kieran Tierney over on the left side.

Thomas Partey will be Arsenal’s holding midfielder today with Albert Sambi Lokonga and Martin Odegaard deployed further forward.

Fabio Vieira looks set to feature on the right flank with Reiss Nelson on the left.

Eddie Nketiah leads the line as he gears up for a big role to replace the injured Gabriel Jesus.

First-team players like Marquinhos, Cedric Soares and Mohamed Elneny make the Arsenal bench.

They’re joined by youngsters Hubert Graczyk, Taylor Foran, Lino Sousa, Reuell Walters, Catalin Cirjan, Matt Smith, Ethan Nwaneri, Myles Lewis-Skelly, Amario Cozier-Duberry, Charles Sagoe Jr and Nathan Butler-Oyedeji.
