Arsenal’s opportunity | Football Daily | Mail Scott
Arsenal make two changes to the side that started the 3-0 Community Shield rout of Manchester City. Bukayo Saka and Declan Rice replace Noni Madueke, who is benched, and the injured Bruno Guimarães, who is expected to be missing for a few weeks after picking up a thigh problem at Wembley. Christos Tzolis makes his Premier League debut.
Coventry City have a few debutants on their teamsheet. Swiss defender Aurèle Amenda, Ghana midfielder Caleb Yirenkyi and French winger Loum Tchaouna start, while Taiwo Awoniyi, this week’s signing from Nottingham Forest, and Gustavo Hamer, newly returned from Sheffield United, are on the bench.
