Bukayo Saka fit, Takehiro Tomiyasu starts - Arsenal expected XI vs Man United

Mikel Arteta has been up to his usual tricks when it comes to team news. Going into Sunday's match at Old Trafford, Bukayo Saka and Takehiro Tomiyasu have question marks hanging over their fitness and Arteta only added fuel to the fire in his pre-match press conference.
"A few doubts that tomorrow we can resolve with another training session," he said when asked about the injury status of his squad. "So we’ll have to see."

Even with Manchester United's form right now, it's still a game where Arteta will want his first choice side available to him. Regardless of the Manchester City score, it's crucial that he gets his team selection spot on. Here's who football.london are expecting the Spaniard to pick.


Goalkeeper - David Raya

Right back - Ben White
