Team News: Aaron Ramsey returns to Arsenal XI against West Ham United

Aaron Ramsey returns to Arsenal XI

Arsenal boss Unai Emery has recalled midfielder Aaron Ramsey for Saturday's Premier League fixture with West Ham United.

Ramsey was dropped for last week's trip to Chelsea, but the Wales international is back in the starting lineup as a replacement for Mesut Ozil, who is sidelined through illness.

The remainder of the team remains the same, with Emery opting to keep faith with Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang despite a slow start to the season.

As for West Ham, Manuel Pellegrini has opted to make four changes to the team which suffered a 2-1 defeat to Bournemouth last weekend.

Issa Diop and Carlos Sanchez have been drafted in for their first starts in an Hammers shirt, while Ryan Fredericks and Michail Antonio also come into the team.

Pablo Zabaleta and Angelo Ogbonna are missing from the defence, with Mark Noble and Javier Hernandez absent further forward.

Arsenal: Cech; Bellerin, Mustafi, Sokratis, Monreal; Guendouzi, Xhaka, Ramsey; Iwobi, Mkhitaryan, Aubameyang Subs: Leno, Holding, Lichtsteiner, Elneny, Torreira, Welbeck, Lacazette

West Ham United: Fabianski; Fredericks, Diop, Balbuena, Masuaku; Sanchez, Wilshere; Snodgrass, Antonio, Anderson; Arnautovic Subs: Adrian, Rice, Zabaleta, Obiang, Yarmolenko, Perez, Hernandez
