Lichtsteiner to be Arsenal fall-guy for Fulham clash

Arsenal boss Unai Emery is expected to axe Stephan Lichtsteiner for their clash with Fulham.

The Sun reports Lichtsteiner looks set to drop out of the side which lost 5-1 to Liverpool on Sunday, with Hector Bellerin fit again.

Laurent Koscielny is expected to start ahead of Shkodran Mustafi at centre-back.

While Alexandre Lacazette may be reinstated ahead of Ainsley Maitland-Niles who is understood to have picked up a knock at Anfield, forcing Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang out to the flanks.

However, Bernd Leno, Sokratis and Sead Kolasinac look set to keep their places at the back despite a horror-show performance against Liverpool.
