Team News: Henrikh Mkhitaryan starts as Arsenal host Ostersunds FK in Europa League

Henrikh Mkhitaryan has been named in a strong Arsenal starting XI for Thursday night's Europa League last-32 second leg against Ostersunds FK.

The Armenian is picked from the off as he is ineligible for Sunday's EFL Cup final against Manchester City, having played for Manchester United earlier in the competition.

Arsene Wenger has made three changes from the first leg, which finished 3-0 to the Gunners at the Jamtkraft Stadium.

Rob Holding, Sead Kolasinac and Jack Wilshere take the places of Shkodran Mustafi, Nacho Monreal and the ill Mesut Ozil, with Alex Iwobi and Danny Welbeck again given starting berths.

Ostersunds, meanwhile, have made two changes from the first leg as Jamie Hopcutt and Hosam Aiesh come into the team in place of the benched Samuel Mensiro and Alhaji Gero.

Arsenal: Ospina; Bellerin, Chambers, Holding, Kolasinac; Elneny, Maitland-Niles; Mkhitaryan, Wilshere, Iwobi; Welbeck Subs: Macey, Mustafi, Monreal, Xhaka, Willock, Nelson, Nketiah

Ostersunds FK: Keita; Mukiibi, Pettersson, Papagiannopoulos, Widgren; Aiesh, Edwards, Nouri, Sema; Ghoddos, Hopcutt Subs: Andersson, Mensiro, Bergqvist, Arhin, Tekie, Gero, Islamovic
