Arsenal XI vs Man United: Starting lineup, confirmed team news and injury latest for Premier League today

Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta has decided to stick with Nuno Tavares at left-back for tonight’s Premier League trip to Manchester United.

Kieran Tierney was pushing to be involved, but Tavares has excelled while the Scot has been out injured.

Tierney was expected to return against Newcastle last week, however Nuno kept his place and performed well, and has been rewarded with a run in the team.

Alexandre Lacazette again misses out on the starting XI, with Martin Odegaard keeping his place in the team at Old Trafford.

Winger Bukayo Saka, who limped off during the win over the Magpies, is only fit enough to make the bench, as Gabriel Martinelli comes into the team.

Arsenal XI: Ramsdale, Tomiyasu, White, Gabriel, Tavares, Partey, Elneny, Odegaard, Smith Rowe, Martinelli, Aubameyang

Subs: Okonwo, Tierney, Holding, Lokonga, Maitland-Niles, Pepe, Saka, Nketiah, Lacazette
