Mesut Ozil is expected to be included in Arsenal’s starting line-up which takes on Barcelona in the UEFA Champions League tonight.

The 27-year-old missed the Gunners 0-0 draw with Hull City due to an illness but has been cleared fit by Arsene Wenger.

Barcelona star Arda Turan will mess the encounter due to a suspension.

Ozil, Joel Campbell and Olivier Giroud will have to be on their best behaviour considering all three are one booking away from a suspension.

The World Cup winner has six goals in all competitions and 17 assists in the Premier League – the highest in the league.
