By on March 7, 2020

Arsenal get back to Premier League action when we take on West Ham at the Emirates this afternoon.

As expected, we see a number of players recalled after being rested for the win over Portsmouth in the FA Cup last week. Bernd Leno is among those back in the team as he starts in goal with Emi Martinez making way.

Sokratis keeps his place at right-back while Pablo Mari makes his Premier League debut as he starts alongside David Luiz in the middle of defence. Hector Bellerin has to settle for a place on the bench.

Granit Xhaka and Dani Ceballos start in midfield with Lucas Torreira injured and Matteo Guendouzi dropping to the bench today. Eddie Nketiah keeps his place up front so Alexandre Lacazette is named among the subs.

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is recalled in the Arsenal attack after being rested entirely for the win at Portsmouth while Mesut Ozil also gets a start this afternoon.

These are the teams for the game:

Arsenal

Leno, Papastathopoulos, Luiz, Pablo Mari, Saka, Ceballos, Xhaka, Pepe, Ozil, Aubameyang, Nketiah

Subs: Bellerin, Lacazette, Nelson, Martinez, Willock, Guendouzi, Martinelli

West Ham

Fabianski, Ngakia, Diop, Ogbonna, Cresswell, Rice, Noble, Bowen, Fornals, Antonio, Haller

Subs: Balbuena, Zabaleta, Felipe Anderson, Lanzini, Snodgrass, Soucek, Randolph
