According to Evening Standard, Arsenal will rotate players in the League Cup match, with Zubimendi and two others competing for opportunities.

While Arsenal are expected to rotate, the squad has considerable strength in midfield, so there will be notable changes to the starting lineup. However, this cup competition should offer Arsenal a chance at victory.

Arteta tends to make similar squad selections in the Premier League, making these cup matches even more important for players hoping to earn opportunities.

Three players who need to seize their chances against Ipswich are:

Martin Zubimendi has not made a single start this season; all five appearances have been from the bench, with three coming in the final 10 minutes of matches.

Last season at this point, Zubimendi started Arsenal's first five matches and played the full 90 minutes in each one.

He scored twice against Nottingham Forest and quickly established himself as a regular alongside Rice.

However, the situation has changed. Zubimendi now finds himself behind Saka and Guimaraes in midfield.

Yet this is positive for Arsenal. Zubimendi's performance dipped significantly last season due to fitness concerns, and he eventually suffered from fatigue. While that situation may not recur, Zubimendi will be hoping for a strong display against Ipswich to force his way back into the Premier League reckoning.

Gyökeres' drop in form has been even more stark.

He has not even appeared off the bench in three of Arsenal's four league matches this season. In the other game against Chelsea, he managed just 12 minutes.

Against Napoli in the Champions League, Gyökeres started and touched the ball only nine times in 73 minutes. While Arsenal had 26 shot attempts in that match, Gyökeres registered none.

He appears to lack confidence, and Havertz's improved form has compounded Gyökeres' difficulty in establishing himself in Arsenal's setup.

Arsenal expect to win all four upcoming matches, and since Havertz has a recent injury history, Gyökeres should get significant playing time throughout the season. When opportunities arise, Arsenal need better performances from him. If he can take the ball freely and score, the team can overlook his limited involvement in open play.

In last season's league matches, 11 of Gyökeres' 14 goals came against bottom-half teams. The other three came at home against Sunderland and Bournemouth.

Ipswich is therefore the type of opponent he should be facing.

This League Cup away trip appears to be a crucial night for Eze.

With Odegaard's return to form and Merino becoming a preferred option, Eze's path to midfield minutes has narrowed further.

While he plays more on the left wing, even there Tsolis is currently the preferred choice, so opportunities are scarce.

Eze impressed when coming off the bench against Aston Villa and contributed to Arsenal's winning goal.

However, in other matches he has been quiet, starting the season with limited impact. He started against Napoli but had no real influence, and his other substitute appearances have been unremarkable.

Tsolis in his best form cuts in from the left and combines centrally with Odegaard. Three of his four assists have been for Arsenal's captain.

This role suits Eze well: operate as a left winger while having the freedom to cut inside.

Yet this season he has shown little sign of reaching that level. If he is to become more than a rotational player, this situation must change.
