Jose Antonio Reyes
and Robin van Persie have both been included for this match as well as
first-team regulars plus Philippe Senderos, Mathieu Flamini and Pascal
Cygan, who all will feature in another virtual reserve team. Midfielder
Alex Song has been ruled out with a knee problem but Emmanuel Eboue has
recovered from a similar injury.
Reading are flying high at the top of the League Championship, are
undefeated in all competitions since the opening day of the season - a
club-record run of 23 matches. Manager Steve Coppell has used the
Carling Cup to give his fringe players a run out and may do the same
here. Striker Kevin Doyle is available for selection despite breaking
two bones in his hand during Saturday's 2-0 win at Plymouth, but Brynjar
Gunnarsson (ankle) misses out once more.
Arsenal : Almunia, Poom, Eboue, Gilbert, Djourou, Senderos,
Owusu-Abeyie, Muamba, Flamini, Larsson, Van Persie, Lupoli, Bendtner,
Connolly, Cygan, Reyes.
