Arsenal‘s style of play has been criticised this season but, even before Saka’s withdrawal, the Gunners played on the front foot and enjoyed more possession than their German opponents.

Saka returned from the World Cup and after a break rejoined the Arsenal squad, playing his first minutes of this season in the Community Shield, coming on when the Gunners were already leading Manchester City 3-0.

The Argentine kept just his fourth clean sheet of the season in Wednesday’s win at Brighton but he is a differential keeper option for this week and the rest of the season.

Villa face goal-shy Southampton next week before a double in 33.

Forest are not an easy opponent for Villa but they are definitely not as threatening without injured
