Kai Havertz

Analysis: Havertz has been selected for the team sheet Tuesday but is not going to play until later in the match, as he is only on the bench. The good news is this gives them another option at forward and a better option to hold the ball if they find themselves with the lead. He will likely feature later in the match one way or another, coming on in the place of Viktor Guyokeres.

Option for Tuesday

Havertz (knee) is an option for Thursday's match against Atletico Madrid, according to manager Mikel Arteta. "They are available, they are in the squad, both of them."

Analysis: Havertz is returning to play as the club plays the second leg of their massive tilt, with the attacker set to be on the team sheet. The real question is how much he will be involved, as the club will likely side with Viktor Gyokeres to start at forward. Either way, the club is at least given another option at forward just in case.
