Team News: Lewis-Skelly starts in Champions League

Myles Lewis-Skelly has returned from his domestic suspension to take his place in the back four against PSV Eindhoven in the first leg of our Champions League Round of 16 tie.

Thomas Partey also returns to the starting 11 after coming on as a substitute against Nottingham Forest last week. Italian duo Riccardo Calafiori and Jorginho are the two players to make way. 

That means Mikel Arteta continues with his front three of Leandro Trossard, Ethan Nwaneri and Mikel Merino - it's only a second European start for Nwaneri, who was an unused sub when we drew 1-1 here last season.

The hosts include Manchester United loanee Tyrell Malacia at left back, while captain Luuk de Jong leads the line up front - he scored against us in the Europa League back in 2022.
