Mikel Arteta starts for Arsenal in tonight's game against his former club Everton at Goodison Park.

The midfielder left Merseyside over the summer after six years with the Toffees.

Arsene Wenger has made only one change to the side that beat Newcastle United last Monday as Aaron Ramsey returns in place of Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain.

Steven Pienaar comes back into the Everton side for the injured Seamus Coleman, while Tony Hibbert is also given a starting berth in place of Phil Neville.

Everton: Howard; Baines, Distin, Heitinga, Hibbert; Osman, Pienaar, Cahill, Fellaini, Drenthe; Jelavic
Subs: Mucha, Jagielka, Stracqualursi, McFadden, Neville, Gueye, Anichebe

Arsenal: Szczesny; Sagna, Koscielny, Vermaelen, Gibbs; Song, Arteta, Ramsey, Rosicky; Walcott, Van Persie
Subs: Fabianski, Santos, Djourou, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Benayoun, Gervinho, Chamakh
