Arsenal take on Manchester United in the 3rd round of the FA Cup at the Emirates Stadium this afternoon.

Mikel Arteta has named a strong side for the game with number one goalkeeper David Raya keeping his place between the sticks.

Myles Lewis-Skelly starts at left-back while Jurrien Timber, William Saliba and Gabriel Magalhaes make-up the back four.

Jorginho gets a start in midfield with Mikel Merino and Martin Odegaard also getting the nod to line-up for Arsenal this afternoon.

Gabriel Martinelli starts on the left flank while it appears Gabriel Jesus will start from the right flank in the continued absence of Bukayo Saka. Kai Havertz will lead the line up front for the Gunners today.
