Arsenal come up against Brentford at home tomorrow afternoon (15:00 GMT). After their last Premier League ending in a 1-0 loss, Mikel Arteta will hope that his message goes through this week, as 3 points have never been more valuable in their title run.

Here’s how I think the Gunners will lineup in this one…

Predicted Arsenal lineup – Back-line

Starting off between the sticks, it will be Aaron Ramsdale – when the English shot-stopper is fit, he starts.

Then, Arteta will go for a back-four but this is where the first change from the Everton match will be. Ben White didn’t look too good and to be honest, he hasn’t looked sharp in his last few games. Perhaps the toll of switching position is getting to him but I think in this match, Takehiro Tomiyasu will start at right-back.

White won’t have much luck getting in his usual position too, as the two centre-backs will remain the same – William Saliba and Gabriel. In my opinion, Gabriel was the best player in Arsenal’s loss to Everton.

Then, it won’t take much thinking for Mikel Arteta at left-back. It’ll be their January player of the month and best signing of the season, Oleksandr Zinchenko.
