Master Özil to start: Arsenal lineup to face Brighton

Arsenal take on Brighton in the Premier League today and we think Mesut Ozil is in line for a starting spot.

Here’s how we think the Gunners will line up:

Bernd Leno

He’ll play.

Ainsley Maitland-Niles

Arsenal have little option but to continue with Ainsley Maitland-Niles at right wing-back.

Sokratis Papastathopoulos

He’ll play.

Granit Xhaka

Arsenal have little option but to start Granit Xhaka in centre-back once again.

Sead Kolasinac

He’ll play.

Lucas Torreira

He’ll start despite having 4 yellow cards already... Booking another today will make him miss Liverpool game on Saturday 

Matteo Guendouzi

The Frenchman will start in the middle with Granit Xhaka dropping back into defence.

Mohamed Elneny

He should play in the centre for the Gunners.

Mesut Ozil

Mesut Ozil put in a solid performance last week and should be fine to start again.

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang

The club’s top goalscorer should continue in the centre.

Alex Iwobi

Unai Emery could look to start Alexandre Lacazette instead of Iwobi but we think he will stick with the Nigerian.
