From the source

Arsenal travel to face Fleetwood Town in the fourth round of the Carabao Cup tonight and in typical fashion, Mikel Arteta is likely to take the opportunity to rotate his side against lower league opposition.

The Spaniard often pounces on these chances to bring in a number of back-up players such as Kepa Arrizabalaga, Piero Hincapié, Cristhian Mosquera and Martín Zubimendi, who are all dying for regular minutes in the Gunners' first team.

While Arteta should of course involve his second-choice senior options, he can not ignore the opportunity this presents for his younger players. Hale End has produced so many fresh talents in recent seasons, but not all of them have had their chance to shine in the first team.
