Leandro Trossard To Start? | 4-3-3 Arsenal Predicted Lineup Against Ipswich Town | OneFootball

Arsenal will travel to Portman Road to play against Ipswich Town in their next game in the Premier League. The Gunners are second in the points table and are not likely to win the league this season. So, they might rotate their team in this game. Mikel Arteta’s side have 63 points in 32 matches with 17 wins, 12 draws, and three losses. They are coming to this game on the back of a win against Real Madrid in the second leg of the quarterfinal of the UEFA Champions League, which saw them qualify for the semifinal.

During the last 11 meetings, Ipswich Town have won once, there have been one draw, and Arsenal FC have won 9 times. Gabriel (injured), Tomiyasu (injured), Calafiori (injured), Jorginho (injured), Havertz (injured), and Jesus (injured) are set to miss this game for the Gunners.

4-3-3 Arsenal Predicted Lineup Against Ipswich Town:

Defense:

Arsenal’s defense is ready to hold firm against Ipswich Town, even with rotation for the UCL semi-final. Raya’s reliability in goal is a given, while White and Saliba form a rock-solid core. Kiwior, stepping in for Gabriel, brings composure, though he will need to stay sharp against Ipswich’s direct play. Tierney’s return at left-back adds dynamism but could expose gaps if he pushes too far forward. Ipswich’s attacking threat is modest, so Arsenal’s backline should manage comfortably, likely securing a clean sheet. Saliba’s leadership will be key to organising this slightly tweaked unit under pressure.

Midfield:

Arsenal’s rotated midfield of Zinchenko, Partey, and Merino should dominate Ipswich. Zinchenko, playing centrally, offers creativity but must tighten defensively to avoid being overrun. Partey’s experience will anchor the trio, breaking up play and setting the tempo, though his mobility might be tested. Merino’s work rate and physicality add balance, making him vital in transitions. Ipswich’s midfield lacks the quality to exploit Arsenal’s changes, so expect Partey to dictate proceedings while Merino presses relentlessly. This trio, though not Arsenal’s first-choice, has enough quality and cohesion to control the game and create chances for the attack

Attack:

Arsenal’s rotated attack featuring Nwaneri, Trossard, and Sterling promises flair against Ipswich. Nwaneri, the young starlet, could shine centrally, using his vision to unlock defenses. Trossard’s versatility on the left will stretch Ipswich, cutting inside or linking with Tierney. Sterling, desperate to prove himself, brings pace on the right but needs sharper decision-making. Ipswich’s shaky defense should offer chances, and Trossard’s clinical edge could be decisive. If Sterling and Nwaneri gel, Arsenal’s attack, though rotated, has the firepower to secure a comfortable win.
