Arsenal head into the fixture after an entertaining 2-2 draw against Bayern Munich in the Champions League on Wednesday. Everton, meanwhile, suffered their first Premier League defeat of the season against Chelsea last weekend.
David Raya is expected to start in goal following his impressive performance against Bayern. Ben White could return at right-back, replacing Jurrien Timber as Arteta manages the workload of his defenders.
Ezri Konsa and Gabriel Magalhaes are predicted to continue their partnership in central defence, while Calafiori is expected to start at left-back despite the possibility of Myles Lewis-Skelly featuring in that position or midfield.
Arteta confirmed that Calafiori was ready to start, highlighting the defender's improved availability after completing a full pre-season. He also revealed that Piero Hincapie had returned to training and was available for selection.
