The line-ups have been revealed as the Gunners look for safe passage into the Champions League

Rachel03 mins


Arsenal can move a step closer to securing passage to the next stage of the Champions League with victory over Monaco tonight.

The Gunners have stuttered in their most recent Premier League game at Fulham but have a good record in Europe.

One loss from five games puts them in a good position to advance, but the visitors are also eyeing a top-eight finish.

Both have 10 points, meaning a win is crucial to either boat for their chances in the final two games.

Read on to see how the two teams line up.

The Arsenal line-up

With a lack of capable defenders for Mikel Arteta, it’s all out of attack for the hosts.

David Raya keeps his place in goal, with Myles Lewis-Skelly, Jakub Kiwior, William Saliba and Thomas Partey at the back.

Declan Rice partners Mikel Merino and Martin Odegaard in midfield.

Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Martinelli occupy the flanks.

And Gabriel Jesus is in front.

Monaco’s line-up

Monaco and coach Adolf Hutter have gone just as aggressive with their formation.

Radoslaw Majecki is in goal with Vanderson, Mohammed Salisu, Thilo Kehrer and Caio Henrique in defence.

He is preceded by a defensive axis of Sungutu Magasa and Lamine Kamara.

Then comes a three-pointer by Maghnes Akliouche on the right, Aleksandr Golovin in the middle and Eliesse Ben Seghir on the left.

And Breel Embolo leads the line.
