Arsenal face a daunting challenge as we take on defending Premier League champions Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium this afternoon [4.30pm kick off].

Granit Xhaka is missing while Ainsley Maitland-Niles and Henrikh Mkhitaryan failed late fitness tests so Stephan Lichtsteiner starts at right wing-back with Matteo Guendouzi in midfield.

We go with a back three of Shkodran Mustafi, Laurent Koscielny and Nacho Monreal while Alex Iwobi supports Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Alexandre Lacazette in attack.

New signing Denis Suarez is on the bench along with Aaron Ramsey and Mesut Ozil.

Here are the teams:

Man City

Ederson, Walker, Laporte, Otamendi, Fernandinho, Gundogan, Silva, De Bruyne, Bernardo, Sterling, Aguero

Subs: Muric, Danilo, Stones, Delph, Sané, Mahrez, Jesus

Arsenal

Leno, Lichtsteiner, Koscielny, Mustafi, Monreal, Kolasinac, Guendouzi, Torreira, Iwobi, Lacazette, Aubameyang.

Subs: Cech, Elneny, Ramsey, Ozil, Suarez, Mavropanos, Nketiah
