Arsenal plays today against Watford at the Emirates Stadium and the gunners are looking forward to this match because a win against the Hornets will help them get into the Premier League top four.
The Arsenal players come into this match with hope to continue their winning streak but they might however not find it easy because Watford has surprised everyone to still be in the Premier League top four after six matches, some just underrate it and say that it’s just in a Premier League top four position to keep it for a big team.
Unai Emery will probably have a hard time choosing a starting eleven because his team has won it’s last seven players with most players having some good individual performances like Danny Welbeck.
Here is the expected Arsenal lineup to face Watford
Cech, Bellerin, Sokratis, Mustafi, Monreal, Xhaka, Torreira, Mkhitaryan, Ozil, Aubameyang, Lacazette
This is one change in the Arsenal lineup that played Everton last week.
Goalkeeping
It is no secret that Petr Cech is Unai Emery’s first choice goalkeeper so he will probably play today’s match.
Defence
The club has already confirmed the return of Sokratis, so the Greek international will be paired with Shkodran Mustafi as usual. Nacho Monreal and Hector Bellerin will keep their positions as full backs.
Central Midfield
Granit Xhaka and Lucas Torreira had a fine match against Everton so I expect to see them together again against Watford.
Attacking Midfield
Unai Emery might decide to drop Aaron Ramsey from the starting eleven due to the transfer rumours on his future. So Arsenal’s attacking midfield will probably include; Ozil, Mkhitaryan and Aubameyang.
Striking
Alexandre Lacazette will probably lead the attacking line of Arsenal again today.

Iwobi would replace Ramsey, not Mhki. Iwobi has been head and shoulders above both Ramsey & Mhki thus far, and we’ve already seen that playing both Ozil and Mhki together leaves little to no chance of playing a high press.
