Arsenal v Everton: match preview

Arsenal v Everton
Arsenal v Everton: probable starters in bold, contenders in light

After a week to remember, Arsenal fans must know a brush with reality could be just around the corner. But having ended Bayern Munich’s 100% start to the season on Tuesday, even the most pessimistic supporters must be confident. Roberto Martínez’s side are not Bayern, although they will be looking for a response having been soundly beaten by Manchester United last Saturday and could make their opponents pay if any complacency creeps in.
