Half-time
No goal after the first 45 minutes. Arsenal would be looking to make up for that in the second half
No Goal for Trossard
Lisandro Trossard had the ball at the back of the net but the goal was cancelled after a VAR review.
Kickoff!
And we are off!
Starting XI
It’s interesting that Mikel Arteta is lining his Arsenal side up today without a recognised No.9. Eddie Nketiah has done better than most expected after being asked to fill the void left by the injured Gabriel Jesus. But the 23-year-old has failed to net in his past five appearances and Leandro Trossard has been banging the door down for a regular start.
Whether Trossard or Martinelli play in the central striker’s role remains to be seen. The January signing from Brighton has certainly impressed since arriving. It’s also interesting this his fellow mid-season arrival Jorginho keeps his place, even though Thomas Partey is deemed fit enough for the matchday squad.
