Arsene Wenger has restored Olivier Giroud to his Arsenal lineup for this afternoon's Premier League match against Everton.

The Frenchman returns to lead the line after Nicklas Bendtner got a surprise start in his place against Hull City in midweek.

Manager Wenger makes three other changes to the side that came past Hull, as Kieran Gibbs, Mikel Arteta and Jack Wilshere get the nod ahead of Nacho Monreal, Mathieu Flamini and Tomas Rosicky.

Everton boss Roberto Martinez, meanwhile, names the same XI who beat Manchester United at Old Trafford on Wednesday.

Arsenal: Szczesny; Jenkinson, Koscielny, Mertesacker, Gibbs; Arteta, Wilshere; Ramsey, Ozil, Cazorla; Giroud

Everton: Howard; Coleman, Jagielka, Distin, Oviedo; McCarthy, Barry; Pienaar, Barkley, Mirallas; Lukaku
