New Partey role, Merino first start and Nwaneri risk – Arsenal vs Southampton line-ups

Arsenal take on Southampton in the Premier League looking to end this section of the season before the second international break of the campaign in the perfect way. The Gunners remain unbeaten and have now secured a big European scalp after their comfortable 2-0 victory over PSG a few days ago.

Southampton meanwhile arrive with a former player and a whole bunch of narratives in tow. Aaron Ramsdale is expected to make his first appearance against his former club and will be looking to keep his first clean sheet of the season having conceded ten goals in four matches.

This certainly bodes well for the Gunners who have relied on David Raya to start the season in perhaps the best form of his career which could even have pushed him into the number one spot for Spain too. Arteta needs to get the line-up right to get the points while taking an opportunity that presents itself to rotate.
