Team news
Eyes will be on whether Eddie Nketiah will be given minutes by Mikel Arteta against the club he recalled the striker from earlier this week.
Nketiah scored five goals in 19 appearances on loan at Leeds but rarely started with Bielsa admitting: “We know what we offered to him maybe was not what the club (Arsenal) expected.”
Calum Chambers will miss the rest of the season for Arsenal after coming off with an ACL injury in the 2-1 defeat to Chelsea.
But Gabriel Martinelli could return from a hamstring injury in what could be a much-changed Arsenal line-up.
Hector Bellerin is also on the mend but unlikely to play any part in this fixture.
