Arsenal welcome Everton to the Emirates Stadium for the final game of the Premier League season.

The Gunners are currently two points behind leaders Manchester City and need a huge favour from West Ham United at the Etihad Stadium to have a chance of winning the league.

Manager Mikel Arteta has a fully fit squad to choose from. Jurrien Timber could be back in the matchday squad for the first time since recovering from a knee injury.

Formation: 4-3-3

Predicted Line-up:

David Raya has already won the Premier League Golden Glove award with 16 clean sheets in the top-flight campaign.

The Spaniard is expected to continue in goal ahead of Aaron Ramsdale due to the club’s outside chance of winning the league.

The back four of Ben White, William Saliba, Gabriel Magalhaes and Takehiro Tomiyasu will be in front of Raya.

Arteta has regularly changed his left-back this term. Tomiyasu appears to be his preferred choice at the current point due to his better defensive attributes.

Thomas Partey has brought a sense of calm with his distribution and ball control from the number six role and should keep his place ahead of Jorginho.

Declan Rice and Martin Odegaard will form the central midfield pairing for the Gunners as usual.

No changes are on the cards in the final third. Leandro Trossard scored the Gunners’ winner at Old Trafford with his superb timing into the box.

The Belgian has netted 17 goals this term and has been a brilliant signing for the club. He is set to start on the left wing.

Bukayo Saka was substituted with a minor knock against Manchester United, but he should reclaim his spot on the right flank.

Kai Havertz had an exceptional 2024, scoring eight goals and six assists in the Premier League. He will aim to end the season on a high with another goal involvement.
