Arsene Wenger will make several changes to his squad for their Capital One Cup third round tie against Southampton tonight.
The Gunners will go into the game at the Emirates Stadium buoyed by Saturday's 3-0 win over Aston Villa, although goalscorers Danny Welbeck and Mezut Ozil are not expected to start.
New goalkeeper David Ospina is expected to start, along with midfielder Abou Diaby, 28. Tomas Rosicky, Joel Campbell and Lukas Podolski will also hope to start.
But Mathieu Debuchy is out for three months.
They will come up against a Southampton team in excellent form, with only one defeat in their first four Premier League matches.
Ronald Koeman is expected to field a strong side.
Arsenal vs Southampton kicks off at 7.45pm
