Mikel Arteta has made four changes to his side for tonight’s Champions League game against Monaco, with Myles Lewis-Skelly handed just his second Gunners start.
The 18-year-old, who has made six appearances this term, comes into our side at left-back in place of Jurrien Timber as the boss shuffles his pack, with Mikel Merino also handed a start with Jorginho dropping to the bench.
Brazilian duo Gabriel Martinelli and Gabriel Jesus are also handed starts ahead of Leandro Trossard and Kai Havertz who are included amongst a strong group of replacements.
Monaco have also made four changes to their side tonight, with former Southampton man Mohammed Salisu slotting into central defence with Wilfried Singo suspended.
Soungoutou Magassa comes into midfield with captain Denis Zakaria injured and Christian Mawissa also banned, while Eliesse Ben Seghir and Breel Embolo return in attack, with Takumi Minamino and George Ilenhikhena demoted to the bench.
