Arsenal Vs Olympiakos

Arsene Wenger will be without striker Olivier Giroud after he was sent off in their 2-1 defeat to Dinamo Zagreb last time out in the Champions League. Theo Walcott will continue through.

Jack Wilshere, Danny Welbeck and Tomas Rosicky are still injured. Arsene Wenger is left with a real selection headache at the base of his midfield with Mikel Arteta and Mathieu Flamini both ruled out and Francis Coquelin also a doubt for the clash.

The away side will be without Luka Milivojevic, who serves the second of his two-match ban in Uefa competitions and they will also be without Manuel da Costa. Alberto Botia will deputise at the heart of their defence.

The fitness of Alejandro Dominguez is also a concern for Olympiakos. Konstantinos Fortounis will continue if Dominguez fails to make the trip.
