Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta could make seven changes for the club’s upcoming game against Brighton & Hove Albion at the Emirates Stadium.
The north London giants currently have a slender two-point lead at the top of the table and must beat the Seagulls to ensure that they don’t lose their position to Manchester City, who have a superior goal difference.
Ahead of the game, we anticipate at least seven changes.
David Raya will obviously return in goal after Kepa Arrizabalaga played in the Carabao Cup quarter-final win. The former has kept nine clean sheets in the league this term and will be eyeing another against the Seagulls.
No changes are likely in the backline. Jurrien Timber, William Saliba, Riccardo Calafiori and Myles Lewis-Skelly are expected to start. Gabriel Magalhaes, Cristhian Mosquera, Ben White and Piero Hincapie are injured.
There will be a midfield overhaul with Christian Norgaard, Mikel Merino and Eberechi Eze making way for Martin Zubimendi, Declan Rice and Martin Odegaard on Saturday afternoon.
Similarly, the attack could see a complete change with Noni Madueke, Gabriel Martinelli and Gabriel Jesus being replaced by Bukayo Saka, Leandro Trossard and Viktor Gyokeres.
