Manchester City have made three changes from the team that beat RB Leipzig in midweek.
Rodri is suspended so Mateo Kovacic starts, while Jack Grealish drops to the bench in the place of Julian Alvarez.
The other switch sees Nathan Ake replace Manuel Akanji at left-back.
Rico Lewis keeps his place in the City midfield, while Erling Haaland starts in attack.
The news every Arsenal fan didn’t want. Despite travelling with the team on the bus, Bukayo Saka is not named in the matchday squad due to injury.
It means Gabriel Jesus and Leandro Trossard will flank Eddie Nketiah in attack. Gabriel Martinelli and Thomas Partey are only fit enough for the bench.
The other change sees Jorginho start over Kai Havertz, who drops to the bench.
