Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta is expected to make widespread changes to his starting lineup as the Gunners travel to Portman Road to face Ipswich Town in the Carabao Cup.
Arsenal head into the fixture in fine form, having won all five of their matches so far this season across the Premier League and European competition. That perfect record gives Arteta the confidence to dip into the depth of his squad and give some fringe players much-needed minutes.
In goal, Kepa Arrizabalaga is tipped to start ahead of Illan Meslier, with first-choice goalkeeper David Raya rested for the evening.
There could be defensive reshuffling too. Ben White is a fitness doubt after being substituted during Saturday's Premier League clash with Sunderland, leaving Arteta with limited options at right-back. Jurrien Timber, only recently back from a lengthy layoff, might be handed the nod there as a way of building up his match fitness gradually.
At centre-back, uncertainty remains over whether Cristhian Mosquera has recovered from a muscle issue. Should he not be available, Piero Hincapie is expected to step in, which would allow Myles Lewis-Skelly to move across to left-back.
William Saliba remains sidelined through injury and will not be considered for selection.
In midfield, Martin Zubimendi looks poised to be given a rare start after being used sparingly so far this campaign. Mikel Merino is also expected to feature, while Bruno Guimaraes could see game time as he works his way back to full sharpness following a couple of minor knocks.
Arteta's usual attacking trio of Bukayo Saka, Martin Odegaard and Declan Rice are among the big names tipped to be rested, along with Riccardo Calafiori. In their place, Noni Madueke is projected to line up on the right flank in Saka's absence, with Eze the likely choice to operate on the opposite side. That combination would mean promising youngster Max Dowman has to make do with a place among the substitutes.
Up front, Viktor Gyokeres is expected to lead the line once again. The Swedish forward has endured a somewhat underwhelming start to the season by his own standards, and the cup tie represents a chance for him to find some rhythm and get his name on the scoresheet.
Based on the reported team news, Arsenal's predicted starting XI reads: Kepa; Timber, Konsa, Hincapie, Lewis-Skelly; Zubimendi, Guimaraes; Madueke, Merino, Eze; Gyokeres.
The match is scheduled to kick off at 8pm BST on Tuesday, September 15, at Portman Road, with live coverage available via Sky Sports.
While the changes represent a significant rotation from Arteta's regular selections, the Arsenal boss will be eager to maintain his side's unbeaten start to the season while also managing the fitness and progression of his squad depth ahead of a busy fixture schedule.
