Arsene Wenger will have decisions to make going into this evening Europa League clash with CSKA Moscow.

Armenia international Henrikh Mkhitaryan has been ruled out with an injury while Granit Xhaka is sidelined with the flu.

Ozil is set to start in his favoured number ten role while Danny Welbeck and Alex Iwobi – who were impressive over the weekend – could partner the star playmaker in attacking midfield.

The French tactician is likely to stick with Aaron Ramsey and Mohamed Elneny in midfield following a string of impressive performances. That leaves Jack Wilshere as the odd man out, Wenger could opt to field the England international either in attacking or central midfield this evening.

The 26-year-old’s form has declined in recent weeks and was ineffectual after coming on off the bench against Southampton this weekend.

Finally, summer signing Alexandre Lacazetter is set to spearhead Arsenal’s attack.

Predicted Arsenal XI: Cech, Bellerin, Mustafi, Koscielny, Monreal, Elneny, Ramsey, Iwobi, Welbeck, Lacazette, Ozil.
