Arsene Wenger says that he will only make "one or two" changes to Arsenal's starting lineup for the Europa League last-32 return leg against Ostersunds FK.

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger has revealed that he intends to make minimal changes to his starting lineup for the Europa League return match against Ostersunds FK next week.

The Gunners cruised to a 3-0 win over the Swedish club in Thursday's first-leg clash at the Jamtkraft Arena, effectively sealing their progression to the last 16 of the competition.

Wenger now has the chance to rotate his side, with the second leg coming three days before the EFL Cup final meeting with Manchester City, but the Frenchman has prioritised picking up another win to keep momentum going.

"I don't think I will rest [players], I will try to win the game again," he told reporters at his post-match presser. "Maybe rotate, play the players who didn't play and rest one or two who played."

Nacho Monreal opened the scoring for Arsenal in the -4°C conditions, before an own goal from Sotirios Papagiannopoulos and a Mesut Ozil strike to round things off.
