Although the former Real Madrid striker is not in the starting XI, Rafa Benitez has said Higuain will play in the second half.

It is a curious place to make his Napoli debut, as the Argentine had been very close to Arsenal before opting for the Partenopei.

Instead, another ex-Real Madrid mad Jose Maria Callejon starts with Goran Pandev, Marek Hamsik and Lorenzo Insigne.

Former Liverpool goalkeeper Reina makes his debut between the posts.

Arsenal start with Jack Wilshere, Lukas Podolski and Olivier Giroud.

Arsenal: Fabianski, Jenkinson, Koscielny, Mertesacker, Gibbs, Ramsey, Wilshere, Rosicky, Gnabry, Podolski, Giroud

Napoli: Reina; Mesto, Cannavaro, Britos, Armero; Behrami, Inler; Insigne, Hamsik, Callejón; Pandev
