Mikel Arteta and his Arsenal squad will face stiff competition on Thursday when PSV Eindhoven rolls into Emirates Stadium.
PSV is currently trailing Ajax in the Eredivisie table by just one point. The club has won 8 of 10 league matches this season.
So, with Southampton looming on the weekend, the boss will have to balance his starting XI’s carefully to ensure he has the highest level of talent starting for both matches.
With that said, here’s my predicted starting XI v PSV…
[4-2-3-1]
Nketiah
Maquinhos, Vieira, Saka
Lokonga, Xhaka
Tierney, Gabriel, Holding, White
Turner
Predicted final score: ARSENAL 3 – PSV 1
