Sports Mole takes an in-depth look at how Arsenal could line up for Saturday's Premier League clash with Bournemouth.

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta should not shy away from making a couple of changes for Saturday's Premier League clash with Bournemouth at the Emirates Stadium.

The Gunners are still working without long-term knee victims Gabriel Jesus and Mohamed Elneny, the former of whom is now working with the ball at his feet in training as he aims for a comeback later this month.

Despite initially stepping into Jesus's shoes and coming up with a string of strong showings, Eddie Nketiah has now lost his place in the first XI and was seen limping towards the end of Wednesday's win over Everton.

Having revealed that the striker had been suffering from a recent knock, Arteta should avoid fielding him from the first whistle if he is passed fit, allowing the interchangeable pair of Gabriel Martinelli and Leandro Trossard to continue in their roles up front.

Bukayo Saka and Martin Odegaard will likely complete the unchanged quartet, although Fabio Vieira and Emile Smith Rowe can feel confident of playing a part amid the rapid turnaround.

Jorginho was taken off at half time against Everton due to a bout of sickness, and while he has since recovered, the door is open for Thomas Partey to make his return to the first XI alongside ever-present Granit Xhaka.

Oleksandr Zinchenko's penchant for creativity was on full display against Everton, but the Ukrainian could be handed a well-earned rest here, allowing Kieran Tierney to earn a rare start amid speculation surrounding his future.

However, Ben White, Gabriel Magalhaes and William Saliba should be in no danger of losing their spots in front of Aaron Ramsdale, who kept his 11th clean sheet of the season in Wednesday's success over the Toffees.

Arsenal possible starting lineup: Ramsdale; White, Saliba, Gabriel, Tierney; Xhaka, Partey; Saka, Odegaard, Martinelli; Trossard
