READ ARSENAL VERDICT  

Saka impressed in the Europa League during the week as he scored a superb goal against Eintracht Frankfurt and deserves his chance to start in the Premier League. 

Aston Villa impressed defensively against West Ham last week, so Saka will need to be at his best – along with his teammates – to break down their backline and create chances.

With Alexandre Lacazette out injured, the likes of Nicolas Pepe, Dani Ceballos and Saka need to step up and help Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang out in the attacking third.
