As expected, Mikel Arteta has rung the changes for the final Champions League group stage game. 

With top spot already assured, the manager has made eight changes from the side that played Aston Villa on Saturday. Only William Saliba, Gabriel and Kai Havertz retain their place, with Cedric and Jakub Kiwior coming into the defence, in front of Aaron Ramsdale. The keeper is making his Champions League debut. 

Jorginho captains the team in midfield, with Mohamed Elneny making his first start since January.

The front three is made up of Leandro Trossard, Reiss Nelson and Eddie Nketiah.

Two potential debutants are on the bench – teenage defenders Reuell Walters and Lino Sousa. 

Arsenal: Ramsdale, Cedric, Saliba, Gabriel, Kiwior, Jorginho, Elneny, Havertz, Trossard, Nelson, Nketiah.

Subs: Raya, Hein, White, Walters, Zinchenko, Sousa, Rice, Nwaneri, Smith Rowe, Odegaard, Saka, Jesus.
