Arsenal will be looking to climb back in to the top four with a win when we take on Leicester City at the Emirates Stadium this evening.

Unfortunately Nacho Monreal and Sead Kolasinac have picked up minor hamstring issues so Stephan Lichtsteiner starts at left-back while youngster Zech Medley is named on the bench.

As expected, Sokratis misses out due to an ankle injury while Henrikh Mkhitaryan and Alex Iwobi keep their places in attack. Mesut Ozil is the man recalled so Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang must make do with a place on the bench.

These are the teams:

Arsenal

Leno, Bellerín, Holding, Mustafi, Lichsteiner, Torreira, Xhaka, Mkhitaryan, Iwobi, Ozil, Lacazette

Subs: Ramsey, Aubameyang, Welbeck, Martinez, Guendouzi, Smith-Rowe, Medley

Leicester City

Schmeichel; Amartey, Evans, Maguire, Chilwell; Mendy, Ndidi; Pereira, Iheanacho, Maddison; Vardy.

Subs: Soyuncu, Albrighton, Ward, Okazaki, Iborra, Fuchs, Ghezzal
