Mathieu Debuchy, Chamberlain and Granit Xhaka return to the starting XI for Arsenal replacing an injured Hector Bellerin, Alex Iwobi and Francis Coquelin respectively

With the absence of Hector Bellerin at right-back, Arsene Wenger has decided bring on Mathieu Debuchy for his first start in over a year for the Gunners. Granit Xhaka who made a substitute appearance at Old Trafford takes his place in the line-up at the expense of Francis Coquelin.

In-form Olivier Giroud has no place in the starting XI once more as he is forced to settle for a place on the bench once again with Alexis Sanchez taking his role up top.
