There are a number of changes from the side which beat Western Sydney Wanderers last week with Arsene Wenger electing to play a mix of youth and experience. Petr Cech starts in goals behind a back three of Per Mertesacker, Nacho Monreal and Krystian Bielik.

Francis Coquelin partners Granit Xhaka in midfield with Sead Kolasinac and Ainsley Maitland-Niles out wide.

Further forward, Mesut Özil and Alexandre Lacazette play together for the first time with the pair supporting Danny Welbeck up front.
