Arsenal need to tighten up at the back when we head to the Britannia Stadium this evening for our Premier League clash with Stoke City.

Wenger has made just one change to the back three from last week with Mustafi replacing Holding. It means Monreal stays in the middle of defence which is a very questionable decision by the manager.

Ramsey gets a recall in midfield as Elneny drops out while Lacazette keeps his place up front with Giroud on the bench.

These are the line-ups:

Arsenal

Cech; Mustafi, Monreal, Kolasinac; Bellerin, Ramsey, Xhaka, Oxlade-Chamberlain; Ozil, Welbeck; Lacazette.

Subs: Ospina, Mertesacker, Coquelin, Elneny, Iwobi, Walcott, Giroud

Stoke

Butland; Zouma, Shawcross, Cameron; Diouf, Allen, Fletcher, Pieters; Shaqiri, Jese; Choupo-Moting.

Subs: Grant; Johnson, Berahino, Martins-Indi, Crouch, Bojan, Ramadan.
