Daniel Farke’s side have conceded ten goals already, and were beaten 4-0 the last time these two met. All of Gabriel, Thomas Partey and Ben White have been declared fit to play and will be available to Arteta, a significant boost for the Spaniard.
The last time Arsenal hosted Norwich in the Premier League they enjoyed a resounding win. They ran out 4-0 winners and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang was the star of the show, scoring twice in the victory. How Arteta would love for history to repeat itself.
There are some big calls from Arteta there, not least in goal. He has gone with Ramsdale and that is a clear sign the England youngster will be No1 sooner rather than later.
A debut for Tomiyasu is telling too. He has been in London for a matter of days but he has come straight in. And how about Maitland-Niles getting a start in central midfield. He has been calling for that chance, can he take it?
Albert Sambi Lokonga is out doing some pre-match media, so that means he starts. Presumably alongside Thomas Partey in central midfield. A big day for the Belgian.
