Match preview

Unai Emery rang the changes in Frankfurt two weeks ago and was rewarded with a 3-0 romp at Eintracht Frankfurt.

This being the second of three games in seven days, the Arsenal boss is likely to shuffle his pack once more, though the Gunners should still be too sharp for Standard.

Arsenal are free-scoring at home and arguably youngsters of the calibre of Joe Willock and Bukayo Saka are superior options than some of their elders.

Arsenal will be a threat having scored 12 goals in four home games while Standard, managed by Michel Preud’homme, have lost five of their last eight away matches.

Key stat

Arsenal have scored in their last 19 home games with at least two goals in 17 of them.
