Jesus leads the line with Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Martinelli offering support from out wide.

In midfield, Kai Havertz is set to partner Thomas Partey and captain Martin Odegaard with the fit again Declan Rice named on the bench alongside Riccardo Calafiori and Oleksandr Zinchenko.

Myles Lewis-Skelly retains his place in the team at left-back. Jurrien Timber is restored at right-back, with Gabriel and William Saliba in the heart of defence.

Arsenal (4-3-3): Raya; Timber, Saliba, Gabriel, Lewis-Skelly; Odegaard, Partey, Havertz; Saka, Jesus, Martinelli
