Arsenal vs Bolton LIVE: Carabao Cup news and lineups, Jack Porter and Raheem Sterling to start
Follow live coverage as Arsenal face Bolton Wanderers in the third round of the Carabao Cup.
The Gunners earned a memorable and hard-fought draw with Man City at the weekend, but given they were seconds away from victory, the point at the Etihad will have felt like two lost points. Mikel Arteta is rotating his team heavily after this exciting encounter, with 16-year-old goalkeeper Jack Porter making his debut between the sticks and Ethan Nwaneri another young starter.
It’s not all young players though, with Raheem Sterling making his debut, Bukayo Saka starting and Gabriel Jesus in attack. Bolton face a tough task to get through the 90 minutes but with the game to be decided on the night and penalties to be played after the final whistle, they still have a chance of progressing to the fourth round draw which takes place later tonight.
