Gabriel returns, Four big changes | Expected Arsenal line-up (4-3-3) vs Everton | OneFootball

Arsenal host Everton in the Premier League at the Emirates Stadium today.

The Gunners picked up a 3-0 win against Monaco in the Champions League on Wednesday night. They squandered four big chances and should have won by a bigger margin.

Arsenal are back in league action against the Toffees. Gabriel Magalhaes has returned to training after his hamstring injury. He could be one of four changes to the starting XI.

Formation: 4-3-3

Predicted Line-up:

David Raya had a comfortable game in goal against Monaco in midweek. The Spaniard kept his second successive clean sheet at home and will be aiming to continue the run.

There will likely be a couple of changes in defence.

Myles Lewis-Skelly had a brilliant full Champions League debut. He provided a fantastic through ball in the lead-up to Bukayo Saka’s opening goal.

Despite this, he is likely to drop to the bench, with Jurrien Timber replacing him at left-back.

The other change should be in the heart of the defence. With Gabriel fit, he is poised to replace Jakub Kiwior. The Brazilian will partner William Saliba with Thomas Partey at right-back.

No changes are on the cards in midfield. Declan Rice, Mikel Merino and Martin Odegaard are likely to retain their places. Jorginho could come off the bench early if Arsenal have a commanding lead.

However, there could be changes in the final third. Bukayo Saka is a guaranteed starter on the right wing on the back of two goals and an assist against Monaco in midweek.

The Englishman has now made 21 goal contributions in 21 games for the Gunners. On the opposite wing, Leandro Trossard could replace Gabriel Martinelli, who was ineffective once more.

Gabriel Jesus missed two one-on-one chances in the opening half. Kai Havertz, who replaced him in the 73rd minute, played a big part in the second goal while bagging the Gunners’ third.

The German is expected to reclaim his position as the main striker this afternoon.
