Gunners set to rotate again

Arsenal will make a host of changes for tomorrow’s Capital One Cup clash with Reading at Madejski Stadium.

Boss Arsene Wenger will field his second string as he continues to use the competition to expose his younger players to first-team action.

Midfielder Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain missed the 1-0 victory over QPR because of a hip injury but is unlikely to be risked even if fit.

Provisional Squad: Mannone, Jenkinson, Mertesacker, Vermaelen, Santos, Ramsey, Arteta, Cazorla, Podolski, Gervinho, Giroud, Martinez, Coquelin, Djourou, Koscielny, Arshavin, Chamakh, Frimpong, Gnabry, Sagna, Angha, Santos, Miquel, Yennaris, Eisfeld, Bellerin.
