Unai Emery has made seven changes to the side that beat Newcastle United this past weekend as Arsenal prepare to face Vorskla Poltava in their UEFA Europa League opener.

Bernd Leno is set to make his Arsenal debut, starting in goal in place of veteran goalkeeper Petr Cech. Elsewhere, the likes of Lucas Torreira and Stephan Lichtsteiner have been handed their first ever start in Arsenal colours by Emery, having been restricted to outings from the bench thus far.

Meanwhile, the likes of Rob Holding, Mohamed Elneny and Danny Welbeck are making a rare appearance in the starting lineup, while Henrikh Mkhitaryan returns to the side as well. The likes of Shkodran Mustafi, Granit Xhaka and Aaron Ramsey have been rested altogether by the Arsenal boss.
