Get ready for an exciting Champions League clash as Arsenal FC takes on Inter Milan! The Gunners are on a winning streak, but will they keep their momentum going?
Arsenal has dominated the Champions League so far, winning all six matches and securing their place in the last-16. With an important Premier League game against Manchester United coming up, manager Mikel Arteta might consider resting some key players for this fixture. When asked about his team selection, Arteta kept his cards close to his chest, saying, "Let's see. I'll make a decision after a good night's sleep."
One notable absence is Piero Hincapie, who is currently sidelined due to injury. Kai Havertz is expected to feature, but his starting status is uncertain.
Arteta revealed that Bukayo Saka has been dealing with a minor injury, so he might opt for a cautious approach and bench the winger. If Arteta decides to rotate his squad, players like Eberechi Eze, Gabriel Jesus, and Mikel Merino could get the nod.
Eze, in particular, has been craving more game time, with his last start coming against Portsmouth in the FA Cup a week ago. Here's a predicted Arsenal XI (4-3-3) lineup:
Raya; White, Saliba, Gabriel, Lewis-Skelly; Rice, Merino, Eze; Madueke, Jesus, Trossard
Unfortunately, Calafiori, Hincapie, and Dowman remain on the injured list.
Mark your calendars for this thrilling encounter! The match will take place at 8 pm GMT on Tuesday, January 19, 2026, at the iconic San Siro. Catch all the action live on Amazon Prime Video.
