Arsenal confirmed team news vs Aston Villa as Leandro Trossard starts and Ben White returns

Leandro Trossard makes his first Premier League start for Arsenal in their Premier League clash with Aston Villa at Villa Park. The Belgian replaces Gabriel Martinelli in the starting XI on the left wing.

Ben White also returns to the starting line up. The 25-year-old was dropped for Wednesday's midweek defeat to Manchester City. However, after Takehiro Tomiyasu's injury, the decision has been taken to bring him back in to the line up.

Aside from that there's no further changes from the side who lost to Manchester City. Thomas Partey has not made the game as he continues to recover from a back injury, with Jorginho coming in to replace him.

Arsenal confirmed XI vs Aston Villa: Ramsdale; White, Saliba, Gabriel, Zinchenko; Jorginho, Xhaka, Odegaard; Saka, Nketiah, Trossard.
