Arsene Wenger is set to name a mix-and-match team for Arsenal’s Champions League game with Olympiakos on Tuesday evening.

The Gunners are guaranteed top spot in Group F and therefore Wenger has included only Thomas Vermaelen and Andre Santos from the side which started at Wigan on Saturday. Abou Diaby’s leg muscle keeps him out, but Tomas Rosicky and Yossi Benayoun have made the trip.

Marouane Chamakh could also be given the chance to shine while Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, Francis Coquelin and Emmanuel Frimpong will also hope to feature.
