Predicted Arsenal XI: Southampton (A)

Arsenal will dearly hope to come back to winning ways when they face Southampton at St. Mary’s this Thursday evening.

Mikel Arteta’s men have lost both their games since the resumption of this season, along with losing some key players to long-term injuries along the way.

The upcoming challenge isn’t an easy one because the Gunners do not boast a very good record away to Southampton in the past few seasons. Hence, if they are to stop the rut, they will have to play exceedingly well against a solid Saints team.

As of now, the Gunners are closer to the bottom half of the table than to the top-four so, they don’t need to think too high and just need to focus on getting their game right.

In terms of injury news, Arsenal will be without Bernd Leno, Gabrielle Martinelli, David Luiz, Calum Chambers, Cedric Soares and Lucas Torreira from this game due to injury and suspension.

That all being said, here’s how we think Arteta will line his XI up:
