Alexandre Lacazette is set to be assessed ahead of this tie. If he is unavailable, it is likely that Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang will continue up front. Willian and Gabriel Martinelli are likely to be dropped for Nicolas Pepe and Bukayo Saka.
Dani Ceballos and Etienne Cappoue are due to miss out from both camps for their red cards in the first leg.
As for Villarreal, Vicente Iborra is due to miss out with a knee issue. There is also doubt over Pervis Estupinan who is overcoming a muscle injury.
