Mikel Arteta has been forced to make his first changes to a starting line up this season as Thomas Partey and Oleksandr Zinchenko miss out on Arsenal's Premier League clash with Fulham at the Emirates Stadium.
Partey is out due to a tight right thigh, while Oleksandr Zinchenko misses the game as a precaution due to a slight knee sprain. Both are continuing to be assessed.
Zinchenko is replaced in the Gunners starting XI by Kieran Tierney who makes his first start of the season, while Mohamed Elneny is in the starting line up for the first time this year as well in place of Partey.

Aside from that there are no further changes to the Arsenal side that one has won their opening three games of the season and will look to make it four in a row for the first time since 2004.
Aaron Ramsdale continues in goal and will be looking to keep his third clean sheet of the season. Ben White carries on at right back, while Gabriel and William Saliba continue inside of him.
Granit Xhaka meanwhile will look to continue his impressive attacking form on the left side of midfield and Martin Odegaard captains the side on the right. Up top it's Gabriel Jesus who had such an impressive home debut against Leicester last time out at the Emirates Stadium, while Gabriel Martinelli and Bukayo Saka will be either side of him.
Coming in on the bench is Cedric, while Marquinhos makes a first team matchday squad for the first time in his Arsenal career. Fabio Vieira is also among the subs.
Arsenal starting XI vs Fulham: Ramsdale; White, Saliba, Gabriel, Tierney; Elneny, Xhaka, Odegaard; Saka, Jesus, Martinelli.
Arsenal subs vs Fulham: Turner, Holding, Cedric, Tomiyasu, Lokonga, Vieira, Smith Rowe, Marquinhos, Nketiah.
