Arsenal can top Group A with victory over PSV, depending on Dortmund's result against Auxerre, whilst PSV could clinch a place in the UEFA Cup with a draw as long as Auxerre don't win. Confused?
Jeffers, Toure and Van Bronckhorst all start in an understrength Arsenal side.
Arsenal's Swedish goalkeeper Rami Shaaban is in for the injured Seaman, Stepanovs replaces Campbell at centreback and Luzhny keeps his place at rightback.
Arsenal can use this game to help boost their form, safe in the knowledge that a place in the second phase beckons. A win, however, could see them top the group. Kick-off is at 19.45 GMT
