We're underway at the Emirates Stadium.
Arsenal subs: Wilshere, Giroud, Walcott, Holding, Iwobi, Coquelin, Macey.
The team news has been announced and we'll start with the home side.
The Swans do have history on their side this afternoon, boasting a strong record at the Emirates Stadium. Only Chelsea have won more times then the Welsh outfit at the stadium, with four victories. Clement's men will be aiming to match their exploits by notching their fourth win over Wenger's men at the ground.
Swansea look set for another battle at the bottom of the Premier League this season, having won just one of their last six matches. They beat Huddersfield Town two weeks ago on home soil, but their defeat to Leicester has ramped up the pressure at the Liberty Stadium, while they were dumped out of the League Cup by Manchester United during the week. Paul Clement needs a result from his team this afternoon.
The Gunners have responded from their defeat at the hands of Watford with three wins on the bounce in all competitions. Arsene Wenger's men hammered Everton last week, which proved to be Ronald Koeman's final game in charge of the Toffees. However, Arsenal almost crashed out of the League Cup during the week after Josh Murphy fired Norwich ahead. Wenger's side were saved by Edward Nketiah who arrived off the bench to score his first two goals for the club to guide them through to the quarter-finals.
Good afternoon and welcome to the live commentary of the Premier League clash between Arsenal and Swansea at the Emirates Stadium.
SWANSEA (3-5-2): Fabianski; Van der Hoorn, Fernandez, Mawson; Naughton, Ki, Fer, Carroll, Clucas; Ayew, Abraham.
Arsenal have reverted back to the side that defeated Everton last week after their League Cup exploits during the week. Wenger names an unchanged starting line-up from the team that beat the Toffees comfortably, with the potent front three of Mesut Ozil, Alexandre Lacazette and Alexis Sanchez leading the line.
FLASHBACK: Arsenal defeated Swansea 3-2 last season at the Emirates, despite Granit Xhaka's dismissal in the second half. A brace from Theo Walcott and a strike from Aaron Ramsey secured the win, although Gylfi Sigurdsson and Borja Baston goals put them under pressure in the contest.
The players are out on the pitch, so we should be underway shortly.
A minute's silence takes place before the contest in the final home game before Remembrance Sunday.
Swansea also ran the changes during the week for the League Cup, but return to a familiar line-up this afternoon. Wilfried Bony, Renato Sanches and Martin Olsson are all out due to inury, forcing Clement into four changes this afternoon. Ki Sung-yeung, Leroy Fer, Mike van der Hoorn and Sam Clucas all come into the side.
HALF-TIME: ARSENAL 0-1 SWANSEA
Swansea hold the lead at the break through Sam Clucas' strike that came completely against the run of play. Arsenal have struggled to break down Paul Clement's men, although Alexis Sanchez came close towards the end of the half, only to be denied by Lukasz Fabianski. The Gunners have not been at their best in the final third and will have to come from behind for the third time in as many matches to earn a positive result this afternoon. It's all going to plan for the Swans.
FULL-TIME: ARSENAL 2-1 SWANSEA
Arsenal come from behind for the third match on the bounce to secure an important victory. Sam Clucas put Swansea ahead in the first half as the Gunners produced a lacklustre opening period. However, they came out reinvigorated in the second half and Sead Kolasinac equalised before setting up Aaron Ramsey for the winner in the 58th minute. Arsene Wenger's men were not at their best, but good enough to claim the three points.
Thanks for joining our commentary this afternoon. Until next time, goodbye.
