How Arsenal could line up against Juventus

Arsenal could welcome back a myriad of their World Cup stars in time for Saturday's friendly with Juventus at the Emirates Stadium.

Bukayo Saka, Aaron Ramsdale, Gabriel Martinelli and Takehiro Tomiyasu are all due to return to training at some point this week, but the quartet may only be considered for minutes off the bench.

Karl Hein started both of Arsenal's games in the Dubai Super Cup, but the return of Matt Turner could see the USA number one now start in between the sticks this weekend.

With William Saliba preparing for Sunday's final against Argentina, Rob Holding and Gabriel Magalhaes will continue at the back, as Ben White occupies the right-hand side of the rearguard.

Oleksandr Zinchenko may also now be considered for a start over Kieran Tierney ahead of the resumption of the Premier League, while Granit Xhaka is also back in the fold and could return to the midfield next to Thomas Partey.

With Martinelli and Saka only just returning and Emile Smith Rowe yet to overcome a groin injury, Reiss Nelson and Fabio Vieira are set to continue out wide with Martin Odegaard playing through the middle.

Amid reports of Arsenal going in for a new striker in January to cover for the injured Gabriel Jesus, Eddie Nketiah will aim to make a statement of intent as he leads the line once more.

Arsenal possible starting lineup: Turner; White, Holding, Gabriel, Zinchenko; Partey, Xhaka; Nelson, Odegaard, Vieira; Nketiah
