Arsenal will look to claim their first win at the Etihad Stadium in more than two years when they face off against Manchester City on Sunday afternoon.
The Gunners picked up a 0-0 draw against Red Star Belgrade in the midweek Europa League game, but Arsene Wenger kept his regulars afresh by playing a second-string side.
Formation: 3-4-2-1
Lineup:
Petr Cech has started the last 10 outings in the Premier League for Arsenal, and he is certain to feature in goal this weekend. Laurent Koscielny, Nacho Monreal and Per Mertesacker are all expected to retain their places in central defence.
The wing-back situation is quite similar with Hector Bellerin and Sead Kolasinac set to keep their places in the right and left wing-back positions respectively.
Kolasinac suffered a hip problem late into the Swansea City game last weekend, but he appears to have recovered in time for the weekend clash.
Onto the midfield, Aaron Ramsey and Granit Xhaka have been regulars in the centre of the park, and Wenger is unlikely to experiment versus City.
Mesut Ozil and Alexis Sanchez have impressed in recent outings playing together, and the pair are expected to combine with Alexandre Lacazette, who has led the line with success this term.
Arsenal lineup (3-4-2-1): Cech, Bellerin, Koscielny, Mertesacker, Monreal, Kolasinac, Ramsey, Xhaka, Sanchez, Ozil, Lacazette
