Saka To Start, Madueke On The Bench | 4-3-3 Arsenal Predicted Lineup Vs Inter Milan | OneFootball

Arsenal will clash heads with Inter Milan at San Siro this Tuesday night as they look to secure a good result on the road in the UEFA Champions League. The Gunners were held to a frustrating 0-0 draw away at Nottingham Forest recently, so they would be keen on returning to winning ways in midweek.

Mikel Arteta will set his players up in a 4-3-3 formation once again and is expected to make one change to his first team for this game. Bukayo Saka could play from the start of this clash, while Noni Madueke makes way for him and drops to the bench.

Defence

David Raya will function in between the sticks for the Gunners after he kept a clean sheet in his last outing. William Saliba will operate alongside Gabriel once again at the heart of Arsenal‘s defence as they look to keep a solid shape when defending inside their half.

Ben White will be a nailed-on starter at right-back, while Jurrien Timber hopes to prove his value on the other side as the left-back. Both of them will have to pick and choose their moments to join in on the attack.

Cristhian Mosquera will offer cover for the centre-back positions on the bench.

Midfield

Arteta could name the midfield three of Declan Rice, Martin Zubimendi and Martin Odegaard for this clash at the San Siro. All three of them need to retain possession well at the centre of the park if they want to engineer enough clear-cut chances to win this contest.

Eberechi Eze and Kai Havertz will have to be content with a spot on the bench as they wait for their opportunity to shine in the second 45 minutes if needed.

Attack

Gabriel Martinelli will try to prove his worth on the left wing, while Bukayo Saka looks to weave his magic from the right flank. Both of them will hope to get in behind the opponent’s backline at every chance they can get.

Viktor Gyokeres will lead the charge for the London outfit up top. He has to find a way to be a constant menace in and around the Inter penalty area.

Gabriel Jesus and Noni Madueke will have to be content with a spot on the bench and might come on to make an impact in the final quarter of the match if required.
