Bukayo Saka, Eberechi Eze and Martin Odegaard could all start together for Arsenal for the first time when they host West Ham on Saturday.

Injuries have prevented the trio from playing together from the off, but Mikel Arteta could unleash them against the Hammers.

Eze and Saka were on the bench for Wednesday’s win over Olympiacos, however they came off the bench and the latter scored.

Odegaard started that game and he impressed, setting up Saka’s goal and claiming the man of the match award.

Arteta made six changes for the victory over Olympiacos and could make a similar number this weekend for the visit of West Ham to Emirates Stadium.

The full-backs will likely change, with Jurrien Timber and Riccardo Calafiori coming in for Ben White and Myles Lewis-Skelly.

Gabriel came off early with a knock against Olympiacos, but Arteta said after the game that he thought the Brazilian was fine.

“I think he’s going to be okay,” he said. “He felt something, I think it was a kick, I’m not sure, in the first half, and he was a bit uncomfortable, and towards the second half he was there.

“He could carry on, but we decided not to take any risks, really, because he’s played a lot of games. He comes from a long-term injury as well, and we need to look after him.”
