Team News: Mathieu Debuchy returns for Arsenal as Arsene Wenger makes five changes

Arsene Wenger makes five changes to his Arsenal side for their Champions League tie against Galatasaray as he rests Alexis Sanchez, Santi Carzola and Olivier Giroud.

Arsene Wenger has made five changes to his Arsenal side for tonight's Champions League Group D game away at Galatasaray.

Wojciech Szczesny has returned in goal to replace Damien Martinez, while Mathieu Debuchy makes his first start since September after recovering from an ankle injury.

The majority of Wenger's changes have come in his forward line, as he has rested the attacking trio of Santi Carzola, Olivier Giroud and Alexis Sanchez that started Saturday's 3-2 loss to Stoke. Joel Campbell, Yaya Sanogo and Lukas Podolksi all start in Istanbul.

Arsenal must win and hope that Borussia Dortmund lose to Anderlecht in order to qualify as group winners.

Galatasaray: Sinan Bolat, Tarık, Semih, Hakan, Telles, Melo, Emre Colak, Bruma, Sneijder, Umut, Burak
Subs: Eray Iscan, Hamit Altintop, Furkan Ozcal, Yasin Oztekin, Olcan Adin, Yekt​a Kurtulus, Veysel Sari

Arsenal: Szczesny, Debuchy, Mertesacker, Chambers, Bellerin, Flamini, Ox, Ramsey, Campbell, Podolski, Sanogo
Subs: Martinez, O'Connor, Kamara, Maitland-Niles, Zelalem, Iwobi, Akpom
