Team news

Ljungberg’s first starting eleven was quite an odd one. Not only did the caretaker manager call up Granit Xhaka back into the squad, but he also handed Mustafi a rare start. The latter decision did not pay off.

Pepe could make a return to the lineup after being overlooked for the 2-2 draw with Norwich. Dani Ceballos remains sidelined but Hector Bellerin and Kieran Tierney hope to be back for Thursday’s clash with Brighton.

As for the away side, they are expected to welcome back two player. They are Leandro Trossard and Neal Maupay. However, this could mean bad news for Aaron Mooy and Arron Connolly as they could potentially be relegated to the bench as a result.
