Aaron Ramsdale; Oleksandr Zinchenko, Gabriel Magalhaes, Rob Holding, Ben White; Granit Xhaka, Thomas Partey, Odegaard; Gabriel Martinelli, Gabriel Jesus, Bukayo Saka

Mikel Arteta is likely to continue using the 4-3-3 formation that he has been using for most of the season. In goal, Aaron Ramsdale is expected to start ahead of Matt Turner.

In defense, Oleksandr Zinchenko is expected to start at left-back, while Gabriel Magalhaes and Rob Holding are likely to form the center-back partnership. Ben White is expected to start at right-back.

In midfield, Granit Xhaka and Thomas Partey are expected to start as the holding midfielders, with Martin Odegaard playing in a more advanced role. Odegaard will be looking to create chances for his teammates.

Up front, Gabriel Martinelli is expected to start on the left wing, with Gabriel Jesus playing through the middle and Bukayo Saka starting on the right wing. Martinelli has been impressive in recent weeks and will be looking to continue his good form against Manchester City.

Arsenal will need a strong performance from their entire team if they are going to get a positive result against Manchester City. The Gunners have been in good form this season but will need to be at their best if they want to maintain their position at the top of the table.

Manchester City have been one of the best teams in Europe over the past few years and will pose a significant threat to Arsenal’s title hopes. However, if Arsenal can play to their potential and get a positive result on Wednesday night, it will be a huge boost to their confidence as they look to win their first Premier League title since 2004.
