Mikel Arteta has handed home debuts to Ebere Eze and Cristhian Mosquera for this afternoon’s Premier League clash against Nottingham Forest.<\/p>\n
The boss has made three changes to his side that lost 1-0 to Liverpool 13 days ago, with the two summer signings handed starting opportunities after impressing off the bench at Anfield.\u00a0<\/p>\n
William Saliba hasn’t recovered from his injury sustained in that game to feature in our matchday squad, while Gabriel Martinelli drops to the bench.<\/p>\n
The other switch sees skipper Martin Odegaard return in midfield, with Declan Rice named amongst the substitutes alongside the returning Ben White and deadline day capture Piero Hincapie.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, David Raya will make his 100th appearance for the club as he is once again named between the posts, becoming the 20th goalkeeper to play a century of games for us – find out more about the numbers behind his century<\/a>.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n \n Read more David Raya to make 100th Arsenal appearance <\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n New Forest boss Ange Postecoglou has made one change to the side that lost 3-0 to West Ham United last time out.<\/p>\n The Aussie is without the services of Ola Aina who is out long-term with a hamstring injury sustained on international duty for Nigeria, so Morato comes into the side in his place. It remains to be seen if he’ll fill the left-back spot, with Neco Williams shuffling over to the other side of defence to cover Aina, or whether Postecoglou will opt for a back three.<\/p>\n LINE-UPs<\/p>\n Arsenal: Raya, Timber, Mosquera, Gabriel, Calafiori, Merino, Zubimendi, Odegaard, Madueke, Eze, Gyokeres.
