Notable Changes
There aren’t as many changes from midweek as may have been expected. Emi Martinez is out for Olsen who gets a rare league start. Otherwise, Unai Emery is trusting a lot of his players to keep up the performance levels from the Club Brugge result.
He has made the change of taking out Rashford for Ramsey which will allow for some slightly fresher legs up front with the on-loan Manchester United forward able to come in if needed from the bench.

Flekken, Ajer, Colllins, Pinnock, Lewi-Potter, Norgaard, Janelt, Damsgaard, Schade, Mbuemo, Wissa
