This is the Arsenal confirmed lineup for their Premier League tie with Bournemouth. The two top-half sides are set to collide in a potentially important tie. Despite being seen as comfortably second placed, the Gunners could see themselves dragged into the race for the top five if they drop too many points. That makes it difficult to ignore the Cherries and focus only on getting back into the tie against Paris Saint-Germain.
David Raya starts behind a back line of Ben White, William Saliba, Jakub Kiwior, and Myles Lewis-Skelly. Declan Rice, Thomas Partey, and Martin Odegaard are the strong midfield while Bukayo Saka, Gabriel Martinelli, and Leandro Trossard make up the attacking trio.
There are only two changes from the lineup that playes Paris Saint-Germain which is interesting as Mikel Arteta tends to rotate a decent amount when he can between league and Europe. With a four day rest until they play PSG again it seems he has deemed that enough time to recover so the primary A-team players are being sent out to keep themselves in tune ahead of that one.
Arrizabalaga, Huijsen, Kerkez, Cook, Evanilson, Dango, Adams, Tavernier, Kluivert, Araujo, Zabarnyi
Stay tuned for the Arsenal confirmed lineup. There will be news as well as a discussion on who starts, who was left out, and what tweaks we may see from the manager. Keep your eyes on this one as it could be a fairly interesting match in deciding who eventually gets into what competition in Europe.
