Arsenal host French side Lille in their second UEFA Champions League group stage match on Tuesday evening at the Emirates Stadium. Kick-off is set for 8pm local time as Mikel Arteta's side look to build on a 2-1 Premier League win over Leeds United last weekend.
The Gunners are expected to field a strong side, with Saka, who has three goals this season, a key attacking threat. The likely lineup could mirror the one that beat Leeds, featuring Rice in midfield and Gabriel Magalhães in central defence. Lille, who lost their opening European game to Real Betis, will be led by former Arsenal striker Giroud.
Arsenal sit second in the Premier League with 15 points from six matches, a run that includes four wins from their last five games. Their only recent defeat was a 3-0 loss at Brighton last month.
After the European fixture, Arsenal's attention returns to the Premier League with a trip to face Nottingham Forest on Sunday, 18 October. The club will be keen to maintain their momentum in both competitions as the season intensifies.
