Arsenal team news: Mikel Arteta recalls forgotten star as one of three changes vs Forest
Arsenal take on Nottingham Forest in the penultimate game of the Premier League season on Saturday (5.30pm).
Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta could make a number of changes for his side's trip to Nottingham Forest this evening. The Gunners know defeat would crown Manchester City Premier League champions, while Forest can secure safety with a win. Express Sport looks at the XI Arteta could field at the City Ground.
Goalkeeper - Ramsdale
Fresh off his new contract, Aaron Ramsdale will keep up his run of playing every Premier League game this season. Eleven of his 13 clean sheets this term have come away from home, so he will be looking to add to that today.
Defence - White, Holding, Gabriel, Tierney
Jakub Kiwior has played the last three league matches. However, Arteta could recall Rob Holding to his backline for this one following last Sunday's 3-0 defeat to Brighton.
Oleksandr Zinchenko has been ruled out for the remainder of the season due to a calf injury. Kieran Tierney will keep his place in the side despite struggling against the Seagulls.
Ben White is due a rest at right-back but there is no other option available to Arteta, so he will play again. Gabriel is the only outfielder who has started every league match for the Gunners this term and will keep up that run.

Midfield - Partey, Odegaard, Xhaka
Thomas Partey has been dropped for the last three matches. However, Jorginho had his least effective game in that run last time out.
Arteta has brought on Partey in all three of those matches but will likely start him today. Martin Odegaard can become the club's outright leading scorer in the league this season if he finds the net.
Granit Xhaka looks set to be appearing in his final away game in Arsenal colours. The Switzerland star is on his way to Bayer Leverkusen in the summer.

Attack - Saka, Jesus, Smith Rowe
Emile Smith Rowe hasn't started a single match this season in all competitions. Now is a good opportunity for Arteta to throw him in.
Gabriel Martinelli is out with an ankle injury which is set to keep him on the sidelines for a period of time. Smith Rowe could get the nod ahead of Leandro Trossard and Reiss Nelson on the left of attack.
Bukayo Saka will maintain his usual spot on the right. Gabriel Jesus will again keep Eddie Nketiah out of the side up front.
Arsenal expected XI vs Forest in full: Ramsdale; White, Holding, Gabriel, Tierney; Partey, Odegaard, Xhaka; Saka, Jesus, Smith Rowe
