Arsenal predicted lineup vs Lens: Leandro Trossard FINALLY returns

CM: Declan Rice – Certainly, the most expensive player on this side will start in this match. Declan Rice is the silent assassin at Arsenal as the performances he puts in are consistent and crucial. He’s cemented himself as the first name on the team sheet for good reason as Mikel Arteta will trust him once more in this important match.

CM: Martin Odegaard – The captain put in another captain’s display at the weekend, scoring a goal and encouraging his teammate Kai Havertz to get off the mark in Arsenal colours. After scoring in the first Champions League match of the season, Odegaard will look to put in another magical display for his side on Tuesday night.

CM: Kai Havertz – As mentioned, Havertz opened his Arsenal account at the weekend and given his masterclass in the last Champions League match, he’ll hope to top that off with his first goal in the Champions League under Mikel Arteta. While the media keeps portraying false narratives without watching him play, Havertz will hope to continue his good form.
