Fixture: QPR vs Arsenal
Competition: Premier League
Kick-off: 19:45 (UK time)
Arsenal have announced their team and substitutes to play fellow London club QPR in a Premier League contest this evening at Loftus Road.
Gunners manager Arsene Wenger has chosen to select Gabriel Paulista for the second successive game, trusting in the Brazilian defender to continue his bright start at Arsenal. He will partner Per Mertesacker in the centre of defence, with Laurent Koscielny dropping down to the bench.
In attack Arsenal will look to Olivier Giroud, who leads the line and is supported by Alexis Sanchez, Mesut Ozil and experienced head Tomas Rosicky. Francis Coquelin plays despite having a broken nose, while Danny Welbeck and Theo Walcott are options for Arsenal off the bench.
Arsenal beat Roberto Martinez's Everton 2-0 in their last match, grabbing a vital three points to continue sitting in third spot in the Premier League table.
