Midfield

Declan Rice and Martin Zubimendi will play as the holding midfielders for Arsenal as they focus on winning the 50-50 battles at the centre of the park.

The talented trio of Leandro Trossard, Eberechi Eze and Bukayo Saka will function just ahead of them as part of the Arsenal attack. All three of them need to be at their best if the Gunners are to secure a convincing win in midweek.

Noni Madueke and Christian Norgaard will have to settle for a spot on the bench as they wait for their chance to impress in the second half if required.

Attack

Viktor Gyokeres will spearhead Nottingham’s attack up top. He has to find a way to be a real menace on the offensive end of the field.

Gabriel Jesus will have to be content with a place on the bench and might come on to make an impact in the final quarter of the game if needed.
