Arsenal vs AFC Bournemouth confirmed teams: Mesut Ozil misses out once again as Pepe gets another chance to impress
Mesut Ozil once again missed out on the Arsenal squad as Unai Emery named an attacking line up to face Bournemouth at home.
The German seems set to leave the Emirates at the next available opportunity after falling well down the pecking order.
After last week's draw with West Ham, Eddie Howe has again opted to pick a young team for the clash in north London,
Arsenal: Leno, Chambers, Papastathopoulos, Luiz, Kolasinac, Ceballos, Xhaka, Guendouzi, Pepe, Aubameyang, Saka.
Subs: Tierney, Torreira, Maitland-Niles, Holding, Martinez, Willock, Martinelli.
AFC Bournemouth: Ramsdale, Stacey, Steve Cook, Ake, Rico, Harry Wilson, Lerma, Billing, King, Callum Wilson, Solanke.
Subs: Boruc, Francis, Surman, Danjuma, Lewis Cook, Fraser, Kelly.
Unai Emery made one change from the draw at Manchester United as midfielder Dani Ceballos came in for the Premier League visit of Bournemouth.
Real Madrid loanee Ceballos scored his first Gunners goal in Thursday's Europa League clash with Standard Liege as a much-changed side secured a comfortable win.
Bournemouth haved named the same starting XI that drew 2-2 at home to West Ham last weekend, with Ryan Fraser returning among the substitutes after illness.
