Team news: Gabriel returns to defence

Gabriel

Gabriel has returned to the starting lineup for today's game against Manchester United. He came off the bench in our first two Premier League games this season and was an unused substitute against Fulham last weekend.

Oleksandr Zinchenko starts ahead of Jakub Kiwior, who is on the bench. Eddie Nketiah - fresh from his first senior England call up last week - starts up front with Leandro Trossard reverting to the bench. 

Takehiro Tomiyasu has returned to the squad, following the completion of his suspension.

Tomiyasu missed last weekend’s game against Fulham after picking up two yellow cards against Crystal Palace the Monday night prior.

Thomas Partey is out with a groin injury.

Erik ten Hag has opted to make one change to his Manchester United side, Victor Lindelof coming in for Raphael Varane.

New signings Rasmus Hojlund and Sergio Reguilon are on the bench. Altay Bayindir, Jonny Evans and Mejbri are also among the substitutes.

Arsenal: Ramsdale, White, Gabriel, Saliba, Zinchenko, Rice, Odegaard, Havertz, Saka, Martinelli, Trossard.

Subs: Raya, Kiwior, Tomiyasu, Jorginho, Vieira, Smith Rowe, Nelson, Nketiah, Jesus.
