Bukayo Saka and Martin Odegaard START for Arsenal in crunch Champions League clash against Bayern Munich despite initial fitness concerns - with Takehiro Tomiyasu in at left-back

Bukayo Saka and Martin Odegaard are starting for Arsenal tonight against Bayern Munich in welcome news for Arsenal fans.

The star pair were potential injury doubts after Saka limped around during the 2-0 defeat by Aston Villa while Odegaard had to come off.

Takehiro Tomiyasu starts at left-back, instead of Jakub Kiwior who started the first leg, or Oleksandr Zinchenko who played against Aston Villa.

Jorginho comes back into the midfield after being benched for Sunday's game while Gabriel Martinelli is on the left wing.
