Henrikh Mkhitaryan and debutant Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang have been named in Arsenal's starting XI for Saturday's Premier League meeting with Everton at the Emirates Stadium.

Aubameyang joined the Gunners on deadline day in a £60m deal from Borussia Dortmund and has shaken off a sickness bug that threatened to rule him out of the game.

Former Manchester United man Mkhitaryan, meanwhile, makes his first Arsenal start after coming off the bench in the 3-1 midweek defeat to Swansea City.

Alexandre Lacazette drops to the bench, while Jack Wilshere is replaced in midfield by Aaron Ramsey.

Everton manager Sam Allardyce has given loan signing Eliaquim Mangala a debut in central defence.

Theo Walcott is in the starting XI as he faces his former club, Wayne Rooney drops to the bench and Oumar Niasse continues up front ahead of the benched Cenk Tosun.

Arsenal: Cech; Bellerin, Mustafi, Koscielny, Monreal; Xhaka, Ramsey; Iwobi, Mkhitaryan, Ozil; Aubameyang
