Squad sheets: Leyton Orient v Arsenal

Much like Arsenal against Barcelona, Orient made it this far by withstanding Swansea domination in the last round and striking twice on the counterattack. They will surely need to produce a similarly defiant performance to have any chance of surviving this tie, especially as Arsène Wenger has vowed to field a strong team so as not to risk damaging his team's momentum. Given that most of Russell Slade's side have never faced a team of this calibre the likely absence of the midfielder Matt Spring, one of the few with experience of a higher level, risks being costly.
