Valencia vs Arsenal line-ups: Predicted XIs and latest team news for Europa League semi-final

Unai Emery has no new injury concerns as Arsenal head to Valencia for the second leg of their Europa League semi-final tie tonight.

The Gunners won the first leg 3-1 at the Emirates Stadium last week and Emery is still only without the five players carrying longer-term injuries.

Aaron Ramsey (hamstring) will not play for the club again before moving to Juventus, while Barcelona loanee Denis Suarez (groin), Danny Welbeck (ankle), Hector Bellerin and Rob Holding (both knee) are also sidelined for the season.

Petr Cech is set to start for the Gunners in what could be the very last appearance of a glittering professional career.

Should Arsenal fail to progress it will likely mark the end of his spell with the club, barring his shock inclusion at Burnley on Sunday.

Predicted line-ups

Arsenal XI: Cech, Mustafi, Sokratis, Koscielny, Maitland-Niles, Torreira, Xhaka, Iwobi, Lacazette, Aubameyang

Valencia XI: Neto, Piccini, Garay, Gabriel, Gaya, Soler, Parejo, Wass, Guedes, Gameiro, Rodrigo
