Mikel Arteta to make two changes for Arsenal vs Man City

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta is expected to make two changes to the starting line-up for the Carabao Cup final against Manchester City at Wembley Stadium.

The Gunners are aiming to win their first trophy since 2020 and ahead of the game, Arteta has already made his decision on the starting goalkeeper.

Kepa Arrizabalaga is expected to start between the sticks for the north London giants, having been ever-present during the League Cup campaign.

Alongside him, there is likely to be another change in defence. Jurrien Timber is fully fit after recovering from an ankle injury against Everton.

The Dutchman is set to be reinstated in the right-back position ahead of Ben White and Cristhian Mosquera in today's much-awaited Cup final.

Timber is strong defensively and is probably the best solution against Jeremy Doku, who is one of the best dribblers in the Premier League.

No other changes are expected. Martin Odegaard could be back in the matchday squad but he is unlikely to make the starting XI today.
