Arsenal confirmed XI vs Bodo/Glimt as Marquinhos starts but Nelson and Cedric on the bench

Marquinhos is back in the starting XI for Arsenal's Europa League group stage clash with Bodo/Glimt at the Emirates Stadium. The Brazilian turned heads in his Arsenal debut against Zurich in the first round of the competition and will be looking to continue his fine start to life in north London.

Key to his impressive display in Switzerland was Eddie Nketiah who also comes back in to the side up front. Gabriel Martinelli survives for Arsenal though with Reiss Nelson only on the bench despite Mikel Arteta stating that the 22-year-old would be given an opportunity this season.

There is also a slight surprise in defence where Gabriel continues in the side. Cedric has been deemed not fit enough to start after his return from injury, but the Portuguese international is on the bench.
