Arsenal are at Goodison Park to take on Everton tonight knowing a win will move us to within one point of the top four.

Mikel Arteta has made some big decisions tonight with Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang dropped to the bench. Alexandre Lacazette comes in to lead the line up front for Arsenal.

The other major news is that Granit Xhaka starts after making a miraculous recovery from a knee injury. The Swiss star lines-up alongside Thomas Partey in midfield with Albert Sambi Lokonga on the bench.
