Arsenal’s title chase continues as they host Aston Villa at the Emirates Stadium on Sunday afternoon, with manager Mikel Arteta making some crucial changes to his starting lineup. Despite concerns over Bukayo Saka’s fitness after he appeared to be hobbling in the team’s previous match against Bayern Munich, the talented winger has been named in the starting XI.
Arteta has made three alterations to the side that drew 2-2 with the German giants in midweek, with Oleksandr Zinchenko, Leandro Trossard, and Gabriel Jesus coming in to replace Jakub Kiwior, Jorginho, and Gabriel Martinelli.
The Charlotte Hornets could be shorthanded in the backcourt for Tuesday’s matchup against the Orlando Magic, as guard Tre Mann is listed as questionable due to an illness. Mann was a late addition to the injury report, sparking concerns about his status for the crucial Eastern Conference clash.
The 22-year-old has been a key contributor for the Hornets this season, averaging 12.3 points, 3.7 assists, and 2.9 rebounds per game. His ability to create offense and facilitate the team’s potent attack has been invaluable, especially with Charlotte’s recent injury woes.
SEATTLE, WA - The Seattle Sounders are gearing up for an exciting clash against the Colorado Rapids at Lumen Field today. Head Coach Brian Schmetzer has unveiled his starting lineup, and there are a few notable developments.
