Arsenal are aiming to make it four wins from four in the Europa League when they visit Molde tonight. Mikel Arteta is without seven first-team squad members for the trip to Norway. Express Sport picks a Gunners XI we expect to see play at the Aker Stadion.
With qualification close to being confirmed, tonight is a good time for Mikel Arteta to give Runar Alex Runarsson his second outing in an Arsenal shirt.
Bernd Leno starred in the goalless draw at Leeds United on Sunday and Arteta cannot do without the German in the Premier League.
Runarsson looked calm and untroubled in his only appearance so far for the Gunners.
But Molde may give him more to think about than Dundalk did at the Emirates last month.

Defence: Cedric, Mustafi, Luiz, Maitland-Niles
Cedric Soares has been restricted to cup action so far this season and should take up his place at right-back.
David Luiz should get a run out following the birth of his daughter last weekend.
Shkodran Mustafi is likely to play, giving Gabriel Magalhaes and Rob Holding a rest.
Kieran Tierney has played an awful lot for club and country of late, so Ainsley Maitland-Niles could come in at left-back, with Sead Kolasinac out after testing positive for coronavirus while on international duty.

Arteta could go with the same midfield trio that started at Elland Road.
Thomas Partey remains out with a thigh injury and Mohamed Elneny is not available after also testing positive for Covid-19 last week.
Joe Willock will have another chance to impress after struggling at times in his first Premier League appearance of the season.
Granit Xhaka and Dani Ceballos are likely to make up the midfield, unless Arteta feels like throwing in untried youngsters Miguel Azeez or Ben Cottrell.
