Mikel Arteta has made plenty of changes to the Arsenal team for tonight’s Champions League clash with Inter Milan.

The Gunners have won all six of their Champions League matches so far - the only club with a 100 per cent record in the League Phase - so can look forward to a last-16 spot.

With Arsenal hosting Manchester United in the Premier League this weekend, Arteta could decide to keep some of his stars fresh by resting them against Inter.

Asked how strong a side he might name, Arteta responded: "Let's see. After a really good night of sleep, we'll see how it goes."

Arsenal remain without Riccardo Calafiori, Piero Hincapie and Max Dowman, with the trio not travelling to Milan.

Cristhian Mosquera is available, having been named on the bench last time out against Nottingham Forest, and could will get first minutes in more than six weeks.

There is more rotation further forward as Eberechi Eze, Gabriel Jesus and Mikel Merino all come into the side.
