Arsenal is gearing up for a Premier League clash against Bournemouth after their midweek success in the Carabao Cup against Brentford. Mikel Arteta’s team, currently in fifth place, seeks to improve their league performance and secure a win against Bournemouth, who triumphed over Stoke City in the Carabao Cup.
However, they might face challenges in their lineup. Bukayo Saka’s availability is uncertain due to an injury sustained during the North London derby. Leandro Trossard and Declan Rice are also doubtful for the Bournemouth game due to injuries. Gabriel Martinelli, Jurrien Timber, and Thomas Partey remain unavailable due to their respective injuries.
In the predicted lineup against Bournemouth, goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale is expected to make way for a well-rested David Raya. The defensive lineup is likely to see the return of William Saliba partnering with Gabriel Magalhaes in central defense. Oleksandr Zinchenko and Ben White are anticipated to operate as full-backs. Jorginho is expected to replace the injured Declan Rice in midfield, alongside Martin Odegaard and Fabio Vieira, providing creativity and control.
In the attacking trio, Eddie Nketiah is set to start as the central striker, with Gabriel Jesus on the left-wing and Reiss Nelson on the right. This lineup aims to capitalize on Nelson’s recent performance as the match-winner against Brentford. Kai Havertz and Emile Smith Rowe are likely to start on the bench.
The Arsenal team will look to maintain their defensive solidity and control the midfield, striving for an efficient attack to secure the much-needed three points against Bournemouth.
Please note that the actual lineup and tactics may vary, and it’s essential to refer to official announcements from Arsenal’s management for the confirmed XI.
