Mikel Arteta has several selection decisions to make

Gabriel Jesus and Oleksandr Zinchenko will be hoping to keep their places as Arsenal take on Bayern Munich in Tuesday’s huge Champions League clash.

The pair have battled injuries this season but both started the Gunners’ 3-0 win over Brighton on Saturday.

Jesus played just over an hour before coming off for Gabriel Martinelli, while Takehiro Tomiyasu replaced Zinchenko with under 20 minutes to go.

Arteta now faces a dilemma over who to start at the Emirates Stadium against Bayern in the first leg of their quarter-final tie.

GABRIEL JESUS IS HOPING TO START

Jesus has been a solid performer on the left wing and will hope his experience gives him the edge over Martinelli.

Tomiyasu and Zinchenko is a close call at left-back, with the former offering Arsenal more defensive solidity but less threat on the ball.

Arsenal have a near fully-fit squad going into the game with Bayern, which is their first Champions League quarter-final since 2010.

Jurrien Timber is the only player who is a doubt as the defender is still getting back to full fitness after injuring his knee in August.

The Dutchman is progressing well, though, and hopes to play again before the end of the season.

Predicted Arsenal XI (4-3-3): Raya; White, Saliba, Gabriel, Zinchenko; Odegaard, Jorginho, Rice; Saka, Havertz, Jesus

Doubts: Timber
