LW: Santi Cazorla
Cazorla has been in great form this campaign following a hit and miss 2013/14 – he is seemingly the only option for this position following the impact of suspension and injury on the Gunners forward line.
CF: Alexis Sanchez
Wenger will be sweating with every Sanchez sprint, lunge, even step at the weekend as he plays the Chilean yet again from the start.
Sanchez hasn’t had a decent break since the start of the month and is no doubt in the red zone and susceptible to injury – however Wenger refuses to rest his star man.
RW:Theo Walcott
Walcott had been expected back in the Arsenal line-up much sooner than the turn of the year but easing Walcott back in to the first team squad followed by a groin injury to the winger has seem him just make a couple of appearances this season.
Maybe against his former side he can now push on and kick start his season and will most likely start due to Giroud’s suspension and Welbeck’s injury worries.
