Arsenal confirmed XI vs Manchester United as Leandro Trossard is primed for Gunners debut

Mikel Arteta again names an unchanged XI for Arsenal's Premier League clash with Manchester United at the Emirates Stadium.

That means Leandro Trossard will have to wait to make his first Gunners start after his £21million signing from Brighton in midweek. The Belgian is on the bench for Sunday's match and could come on late in the game to make his first appearance for his new club.

Starting in the front line instead of him are Bukayo Saka, Eddie Nketiah and Gabriel Martinelli. The trio will be looking to continue their impressive scoring record.

In midfield, it's Thomas Partey who flanks Granit Xhaka and Martin Odegaard. The trio will be looking to take advantage of the fact that Casemiro is absent for United with suspension.

Ben White and Oleksandr Zinchenko start as the full-backs while Gabriel and William Saliba partner each other in defence, with Jakob Kiwior expected to arrive to provide them with competition hopefully in the next few days. In goal meanwhile, Aaron Ramsdale will look to build on his impressive display last week against Spurs.

Arsenal confirmed XI vs Manchester United - Ramsdale; White, Saliba, Gabriel, Zinchenko; Partey, Xhaka, Odegaard; Saka, Nketiah, Martinelli.
