Arsenal need to put a turbulent week behind them and get back to winning ways when we take on Wolves at the Emirates this afternoon.

Unai Emery has handed Mesut Ozil a start in the Premier League after his excellent performance during our 5-5 draw with Liverpool in the Carabao Cup in midweek.

Nicolas Pepe misses out as Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Alexandre Lacazette start in the Arsenal attack. As expected, Granit Xhaka isn’t involved so Lucas Torreira, Matteo Guendouzi and Dani Ceballos all start in midfield.

Bernd Leno returns in goal so Emi Martinez makes way while Kieran Tierney, David Luiz and Sokratis are all recalled in defence. Emery has also recalled Calum Chambers at right-back with Hector Bellerin dropping out.

These are the teams for the game:

Arsenal

Leno, Chambers, Sokratis, Luiz, Tierney, Ozil, Guendouzi, Torreira, Ceballos, Lacazette, Aubameyang

Subs: Bellerin, Pepe, Martinez, Willock, Kolasinac, Martinelli, Saka

Wolves

Rui Patricio, Dendoncker, Coady, Saiss, Doherty, Moutinho, Neves, Jonny, Traore, Jimenez, Jota

Subs: Neto, Cutrone, Gibbs-White, Ruddy, Perry, Ruben Vinagre, Kilman
