*Kick off is 5:30pm local time. The game can be watched live Arsenal.com and the Arsenal App from 1.10pm (UK time)Arsenal’s 23-man squad:
Cech, Leno, Okonkwo, Bellerin, Mavropanos, Koscielny, Mustafi, Jenkinson, Medley, Osei-Tutu, Pleguezuelo, Holding, Sheaf, Thompson, Olayinka, Gilmour, Suarez, Amaechi, Maitland-Niles, John-Jules, Ozil, Lacazette, Welbeck.
Looks like Bellerín, Welbeck and Holding have made the trip and will serve as Arsenal ambassadors.
