The defensive line has seen minimal to no changes except for the left-back spot for most of the season. Ben White, William Saliba, and Gabriel Magalhaes have continued their defensive partnership this season building on their chemistry from last year.<\/p>\n<p>Jakub Kiwior started against the Hammers thanks to injuries to Oleksandr Zinchenko and <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2024\/02\/05\/arsenal-takehiro-tomiyasu-new-contract\/\" target=\"_self\">Takehiro Tomiyasu<\/a> and is expected to keep his spot for this game against the Clarets.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Read More:\u00a0<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2024\/02\/12\/nicolas-jover-arsenal-set-pieces\/\" target=\"_self\">Arsenal\u2019s Unsung Hero: The Mastermind Behind More Than 30% of Arsenal\u2019s Goals This Season<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Declan Rice, Kai Havertz, and Martin Odegaard have been the preferred midfield trio for the North London side. Arteta has opted to play Jorginho in place of Havertz for crucial games against Manchester City and Liverpool, however, the German midfielder has seen the most starts from this position.<\/p>\n<p>Gabriel Martinelli and Bukayo Saka have been the ever-present attacking force for the Gunners. Leandro Trossard and Eddie Nketiah have also seen some sporadic starts up front. With Gabriel Jesus out with injury, the Belgian forward is expected to get the nod ahead of his English counterpart.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Watch:\u00a0<\/strong>The Domino Effect Ruining Football<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"THE DOMINO EFFECT RUINING FOOTBALL\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/fNQxiqia1Vo?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h3>Arsenal Recent Form and Tactics<\/h3>\n<p>The North Londoners have stuck to the tried and tested 4-3-3 formation this year. While in possession it is common for the left-back, be it Zinchenko, Tomiyasu, or Kiwior, to invert into a midfield role alongside Rice, providing a strong base for Odegaard and Havertz to press high up the pitch along with the forwards.<\/p>\n<p>Trossard plays as a false nine allowing the wingers and wide players to cut in and benefit through his link-up play with the midfielders. The ability of both center backs, Saliba and Gabriel, to play long balls to the forward line adds another element of threat to the Arsenal attack.<\/p>\n<p>When out of possession the team reverts to a 4-5-1 system, crowding the midfield and pressing to win the ball back as quickly as possible.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Read More:\u00a0<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2024\/02\/12\/arsenal-nico-williams-scouting-before-summer\/\" target=\"_self\">\u2018Race Is Completely Open\u2019: Arsenal Send Scouts to Monitor 34-Goal La Liga Sensation Before Summer Window<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Arsenal have had a great start to the new year having won all four of their Premier League matches, most notably against the Reds at the Emirates Stadium. However, they are knocked out of both the Carabao Cup and the FA Cup. With some players returning from injury and international duty, the Gunners are expected to make a strong push for the title this season.<\/p>\n<h3>Arsenal Injuries to Consider<\/h3>\n<p>Zinchenko picked up a knock at halftime in the match against Liverpool and is expected to miss the Burnley tie.\u00a0 Gabriel Jesus remains out with a knee problem.
