Arsenal team news:

Star playmaker Mesut Ozil is available for selection this weekend. The 29-year-old has been handed the no.10 jersey and is expected to adopt a prominent role in Emery’s side this season.

The former Real Madrid star endured a difficult summer and ended up retiring from international football citing racism and discrimination.

Ozil was in impressive form for Arsenal during pre-season and was the star of the show during their 1-1 draw with Chelsea earlier this month.

Meanwhile, Laurent Koscielny is ruled out with a long-term ankle injury while Sead Kolasinac, Nacho Monreal and Aaron Ramsey are unlikely to feature.
