Arsene Wenger has made two changes to his side for Wednesday night’s Champions League last-16 first leg against Monaco.
Hector Bellerin returns at right back for Calum Chambers, while Kieran Gibbs replaces Nacho Monreal on the other side of the defence.
Otherwise it is an unchanged side from the team that beat Crystal Palace on Saturday, meaning Olivier Giroud leads the line for his first Champions League appearance of the season.
Team in full: Ospina, Bellerin, Koscielny, Mertesacker, Gibbs, Coquelin, Cazorla, Alexis, Ozil, Welbeck, Giroud
Subs: Szczesny, Gabriel, Monreal, Chambers, Rosicky, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Walcott
