Fixture: Blackpool vs Arsenal
Competition: FA Cup
Kick-off: 17:30 (UK time)

Arsenal manager Unai Emery has named his starting eleven and substitutes for his side's FA Cup third round clash against Blackpool at Bloomfield Road this evening. 

Petr Cech gets a game for Arsenal in goal with Emery opting for the experienced centre-back pairing of Laurent Koscielny and Sokratis. Aaron Ramsey will start in midfield and will play alongside Mohamed Elneny and Ainsley Maitland-Niles.




19-year-old striker Eddie Nketiah will play up front with Alex Iwobi and Joe Willock in support. Lucas Torreira, Mateo Guendouzi and Alexandre Lacazette are some of the options Emery has on the bench.

Emery will look forward to seeing his side avoid any upsets in a tricky cup tie away to the League One outfit and get the win needed to progress in the competition.
