Arsene Wenger has made 11 changes to the side that beat Tottenham Hotspur last weekend as Arsenal prepare to face 1. FC Koln in Europa League
Danny Welbeck makes his return nearly a month after recovering from a groin injury, while the likes of Olivier Giroud, Jack Wilshere and Calum Chambers start as well. Per Mertesacker will lead the side against the struggling Bundesliga side.
Meanwhile, Peter Stoger has picked three strikers for the crucial Matchday 5 game, with Yuya Osako, Jhon Cordoba and Sehrou Guirassy making the three-pronged front-line. Self confessed Arsenal fan Timo Horn will be in charge of frustrating the visitors between the sticks.
