Team News: Wojciech Szczesny returns in goal for Arsenal

Szczesny returns for Arsenal

Wojciech Szczesny has returned in goal for Arsenal's trip to Brighton & Hove Albion in the fourth round of the FA Cup this afternoon.

The Pole is one of seven changes made by manager Arsene Wenger following last weekend's 2-0 win away to Manchester City in the Premier League.

Calum Chambers is recalled in defence, while there are also starts for Kieran Gibbs, Mathieu Flamini, Theo Walcott, Mesut Ozil and Tomas Rosicky.

Alexis Sanchez and Santi Cazorla are among those who have to settle for a place on the bench for the visitors.

Brighton boss Chris Hughton has made two changes to his starting XI in the wake of Tuesday's surprise victory over Ipswich Town in the Championship.

Lewis Dunk is back in defence for the Seagulls, who also have Jake Forster-Caskey in their lineup after the midfielder missed the game against Ipswich with a hip problem.

Brighton: Stockdale; Bruno, Greer, Dunk, Bennett; Holla, Ince; Calderon, Forster-Caskey, Baldock; O'Grady Subs: Walton, Hughes, Rea, Chicksen, Colunga, March, Mackail-Smith

Arsenal: Szczesny; Chambers, Koscielny, Monreal, Gibbs; Flamini, Walcott, Ramsey, Ozil, Rosicky; Giroud Subs: Martinez, Mertesacker, Bellerin, Coquelin, Cazorla, Alexis, Akpom
