How Arsenal will line up in Champions League tie vs Ludogorets
Arsene Wenger could make several changes from the win against Swansea City on Saturday as he looks to freshen up his team for the Group A encounter
David Ospina will start in goal for Arsenal against Ludogorets on Wednesday night as the Columbian continues his run of playing Champions League group stage games.
Ospina held showdown talks with Gunners boss Arsene Wenger over the summer and it was agreed that the 28-year-old would be given an opportunity to play in Arsenal’s European group stage encounters.
With Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain recently commenting on his lack of playing time and Mohamed Elneny unable to forge a regular starting spot, both players look set to feature against the Bulgarian champions on Wednesday.
Granit Xhaka’s red card against Swansea means he’ll miss Arsenal’s next three Premier League games, which means it’s more than likely that he’ll start in midfield against Ludogorets.
Meanwhile, Olivier Giroud and Aaron Ramsey continue to get closer to a return from injury but won’t be involved in Wednesday night’s game.
