Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta says his young players will have the chance to put pressure on regular first-team players in Thursday's Europa League game with Dundalk at the Aviva Stadium.
The Gunners have already secured top spot in the group, while Irish side Dundalk cannot progress.
"We have a few kids here. We left a few players at home as well," Arteta said.
"There are a lot of games and we need a complete training week as well, which I think is going to benefit us."
The Gunners are only three points above the Premier League relegation zone after four games without a win - but they have cruised through in the Europa League with five wins from five.
