Arsenal will meet Fleetwood in the Carabao Cup on Tuesday, with a place in the quarter-finals on the line, reports The Independent. The Gunners face the lowest-ranked team left in the competition, notes the Evening Standard.

Mikel Arteta has warned his players against complacency, the Evening Standard reports, after recalling a major Carabao Cup upset. The manager is reportedly planning heavy rotation against the League Two side, with several Under-21 players set for a chance.

Sky Sports suggests Arsenal should unleash Dowman in the match, while the Evening Standard notes that some Under-21s will be otherwise engaged.
