Arsenal XI vs Standard Liege: Predicted line-up, team news and injury list for Europa League clash

Arsenal head coach Unai Emery is almost certain to once again rotate his squad as the Gunners welcome Standard Liege in the Europa League tonight .

Alexandre Lacazette (ankle) and Emile Smith Rowe (concussion) are the only absentees for this Europa League Group F clash.

Mesut Ozil is also expected to be recalled along with Kieran Tierney, while Hector Bellerin and Rob Holding could feature as they continue their comebacks from injury.

Emery has asked Tierney not to link up with the Scotland squad next week to benefit his rehabilitation.

The likes of Gabriel Martinelli and Reiss Nelson will be pushing for a rare start. Emiliano Martinez will start in goal, the 27-year-old having been called into the Argentina squad for the first time in over eight years.
