Goalkeeper and Defence


GK – David Raya – the Spaniard will be hoping that he is not tested as much as he was versus Newcastle on Tuesday.

RB – Jurrien Timber – the fullback will have to deal with both Bruno Fernandes and Diogo Dalot so Arteta will need to ensure that his teammates provide enough cover.


CB – William Saliba – Rasmus Hojlund isn’t the most physically imposing striker so the defender should be able to cope without too many issues.

CB – Gabriel – the Brazilian will be looking to score from a corner with United being pretty abysmal when it comes to defending set-pieces.

LB – Riccardo Calafiori – Myles Lewis-Skelly didn’t do much wrong against Newcastle but Arteta may decide to rotate with the Italian international coming back into the starting lineup.
