Team News: Theo Walcott starts for Arsenal against Hull City

By Alex Meyers, Reporter | 04 January 2015

Theo Walcott starts for the first time in exactly a year as holders Arsenal take on beaten finalists Hull City in the third-round of the FA Cup.

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has named Theo Walcott in the starting lineup for this afternoon's FA Cup final rematch against Hull City.

The 25-year-old has not started a match for the Gunners since suffering a knee injury in last year's third-round victory over Tottenham Hotspur.

There is also a place for Colombian goalkeeper David Ospina, while Joel Campbell comes in to the attack for the holders.

Meanwhile, Hull have made 10 changes from their 2-0 win against Everton, with Curtis Davies the only player to keep his place in the team.

Arsenal: Ospina, Bellerin, Chambers, Mertesacker, Monreal, Coquelin, Rosicky, Cazorla, Walcott, Campbell, Sanchez
Subs: Martinez, Debuchy, Koscielny, Zelalem, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Maitland-Niles, Akpom

Hull: Harper, Figueroa, Maguire, Davies, McShane, Ince, Huddlestone, Quinn, Brady, Aluko, Sagbo
Subs: McGregor, Bruce, Meyler, Hernandez, Livermore, Dawson, Elmohamady
