Mikel Arteta has made three changes to his side for this afternoon’s Premier League clash with Aston Villa, with Bukayo Saka, Ebere Eze and Jurrien Timber returning to our line-up.
The trio were rested for Wednesday’s 2-0 win against Brentford but all return for our game at Villa Park, replacing Noni Madueke, Gabriel Martinelli and Cristhian Mosquera.
The latter misses out on the matchday squad with an ankle injury sustained in midweek, with Jurrien set to deputise at centre-back once again with William Saliba still not fit enough to return.
One player who is back is Leandro Trossard, who is named on our bench after missing the last two matches with a knock, as is 16-year-old centre-back Marli Salmon, who is included in a first-team matchday squad for the first time, having also played on our pre-season tour of Asia.
