Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has confirmed his starting line-up for the Premier League clash against Brighton & Hove Albion this afternoon.
The Gunners are on a seven-match winning streak this term and will aim to extend the run against the Seagulls at the Amex Stadium today.
Ahead of the game, Arteta has made nine changes from the 4-2 win over Ipswich Town in the Carabao Cup third round on Tuesday night.
David Raya reclaims his spot in goal from Kepa Arrizabalaga.
In the backline, Marli Salmon, Martin Zubimendi and Myles Lewis-Skelly make way. Jurrien Timber makes his first start of the season at right-back, while Riccardo Calafiori features on the opposite end.
Ezri Konsa will partner Gabriel Magalhaes in central defence.
In midfield, Bruno Guimaraes is set for his full league debut with the Gunners and will be accompanied by Declan Rice. Mikel Merino occupies the bench, having started the midweek win at Portman Road.
In the final third, there is a complete overhaul. Bukayo Saka and Christos Tzolis replace Noni Madueke and Eberechi Eze on the wings. Martin Odegaard starts as the attacking midfielder ahead of Max Dowman.
As expected, Kai Havertz leads the line instead of Viktor Gyokeres.
Confirmed Arsenal line-up (4-2-3-1) vs Brighton: Raya; Timber, Konsa, Gabriel, Calafiori; Guimaraes, Rice; Saka, Odegaard, Tzolis; Havertz.
