An international break that brought a lot of negative injury news has meant that Arsenal manager Renée Slegers has made five changes to her starting lineup since the Gunners’ last WSL outing away to Crystal Palace.

Arsenal host Leicester City at the Emirates Stadium, looking to push further forward in the WSL, but which players has Slegers selected to take on the Foxes?

The main news is that Manuela Zinsberger starts in goal in the absence of this season’s preferred Daphne van Domselaar who finds herself sidelined with an ankle injury. Katie McCabe returns to the pitch after serving a red card ban and Stina Blackstenius leads the line.

The Arsenal starting lineup is:

Manuela Zinsberger, Emily Fox, Leah Williamson, Steph Catley, Mariona Caldentey, Beth Mead, Kim Little, Katie McCabe, Caitlin Foord, Stina Blackstenius

Substitutes:

Naomi Williams, Amanda Ilestedt, Jenna Nighswonger, Katie Reid, Lia Wälti, Kyra Cooney-Cross, Victoria Pelova, Rosa Kafaji
