Mikel Arteta keeps faith with the side that lost at Goodison Park last weekend for the visit of Brentford.

It's the first time since May 2015 that we have made no changes to the lineup for six Premier League matches running.

It means Aaron Ramsdale is behind a defence of Ben White, William Saliba, Oleksandr Zinchenko and Gabriel - the Brazilian making his 99th appearance.

Thomas Partey, Granit Xhaka and Martin Odegaard make up the midfield, with Gabriel Martinelli, Bukayo Saka and Eddie Nketiah up front. 

It means new signings Jorginho and Jakub Kiwior are on the bench at the Emirates for the first time.

Arsenal: Ramsdale, White, Saliba, Gabriel, Zinchenko, Partey, Xhaka, Odegaard, Saka, Martinelli, Nketiah

Subs: Turner, Holding, Tierney, Tomiyasu, Kiwior, Jorginho, Vieira, Trossard, Cozier-Duberry.
