Arsenal make two changes for Atalanta game, Jesus captain — Arsenal make two changes for A

The Gunners returned to winning ways at the weekend with a 1-0 win over Tottenham Hotspur in the Premier League. Gabriel Magalhaes scored the only goal of the north London derby.

The focus has now turned to the Champions League game against Atalanta in Bergamo. Ahead of the clash, Arteta has made a couple of changes from the victory over Spurs on the road.

Declan Rice comes into the centre of the park in place of Jorginho. Gabriel Jesus has got the nod ahead of Leandro Trossard up front and he has also been handed the captain's armband.

Arsenal will start as favourites against the Serie A outfit and they have the chance to register a solid win in the new league phase of the Champions League.

The north London giants will play eight games in their first stage with four at home and four on the road.
