Team News

Preston
Preston's injury room currently houses Ched Evans (discomfort), Patrick Bauer (elbow) and Will Keane (tendon), while Robbie Brady twisted his ankle in the draw with Plymouth and is not expected to make the cut either.

Montenegrin striker Milutin Osmajic is also unavailable on account of an eight-game ban for biting Liverpool's on-loan Blackburn Rovers defender Owen Beck a few weeks back, but Josh Bowler might return from illness to offer Heckingbottom an alternative to the stricken Brady.
Preston North End possible starting lineup:
Woodman; Kesler-Hayden, Hughes, Lindsay, Storey, Potts; Whiteman, Frokjaer-Jensen, Ledson; Greenwood, Riis

Arsenal
As one Arsenal defender returns from the sidelines - Saliba has served his one-game ban - two have taken their place on them, as Gabriel appeared to hurt his knee in the draw with Liverpool before Jurrien Timber was forced off with suspected cramp.

However, neither man should have been risked from the off on Wednesday even if they were fully fit - the same goes for fellow absentees Riccardo Calafiori (knee) and Martin Odegaard (ankle) - while Takehiro Tomiyasu (knee) and Kieran Tierney (hamstring) are also sidelined.

Second-choice goalkeeper Neto being cup-tied allowed 16-year-old Jack Porter to become Arsenal's youngest-ever starter in goal against Bolton, but another shot-stopping debutant - 2006-born Tommy Setford - could start this one instead.

Nwaneri, Myles Lewis-Skelly and Josh Nichols represent another handful of teenagers whom Arteta should place his faith in on Wednesday night, along with veterans Raheem Sterling and Jorginho.
Arsenal possible starting lineup:
Setford; Nichols, Saliba, Kiwior, Lewis-Skelly; Nwaneri, Jorginho, Rice; Sterling, Jesus, Martinelli

Prediction: Preston North End 0-2 Arsenal
