The hosts are set to welcome Ozan Kabak but Grant Hanley, Mathias Normann, Milot Rashica, and Andrew Omobamidele are set to miss the game owing to various injuries.

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta will make a late decision over the involvement of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, however, he will be without Pablo Mari, Calum Chambers, and Albert Sambi Lokonga owing to Covid-19.
