Fresh from that 4-1 win over Tottenham Hotspur, Mikel Arteta has chosen the same squad as Arsenal prepare for another capital match.
Viktor Gyokeres leads the line for the Gunners after his two-goal performance against Spurs, with Eberechi Eze once again selected in midfield.
William Saliba and Gabriel will again start in central defence, while Leandro Trossard will be preferred to Gabriel Martinelli on the left of the front three.
There is no place in the matchday squad for Arsenal captain Martin Odegaard. Elsewhere, former Chelsea duo Noni Madueke and Kai Havertz are among the substitutes.
