From the source

Arsenal are set for a return to Highbury, and not in the way some would expect, as they travel to face League Two outfit Fleetwood Town in the fourth round of the Carabao Cup on Tuesday night.

The Gunners continued their recent winning form with a 2-0 victory over Everton last time out with their defenders firing them to victory. Ezri Konsa put his side in front when he showed great instinct to prod in at the back post during a corner before Gabriel sealed the three points with a header from Ben White's cross.

With his side facing a team from three leagues below, Mikel Arteta will no doubt rotate his XI heavily for the trip to Highbury and is likely to offer chances to several fringe players and academy stars who are eager for first team minutes.
