Nicolas Pepe is feeling ‘unwell’ and has been left out of Arsenal’s matchday squad for the side’s Premier League clash with champions Manchester City this afternoon.

The Gunners have made four changes from their 2-0 defeat to Chelsea last weekend, with Martin Odegaard returning to Mikel Artete’s starting XI following his permanent £30million move from Real Madrid.

Club captain Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang starts for the first time in the top flight this season after recovering from an illness and Calum Chambers and Sead Kolasinac come in at the back for the visitors at the Etihad.

Pep Guardiola, meanwhile, has opted for an unchanged team following his side’s emphatic 5-0 victory at home to newly-promoted Norwich last Saturday.

More to follow.
