Bukayo Saka has been handed a first Premier League start in Arsenal's Premier League clash with Aston Villa on Sunday.
The 18-year-old academy graduate scored his first goal for the club in Thursday's 3-0 Europa League win over Eintracht Frankfurt, where he also laid on the Gunners' other two goals
He is the only change from the side that threw away a two-goal lead to draw 2-2 at Watford last weekend, with Mesut Ozil dropping to the substitutes' bench.
Villa, meanwhile, made just one alteration from the XI that drew 0-0 with West Ham on Monday, winger Trezeguet replacing Jota.
