Arsenal face their toughest test of the season so far when they travel to Old Trafford to face Manchester United on Sunday. The Gunners will be looking to make it six wins out of six in the Premier League, knowing that a victory would take them four points clear at the top of the division.
After a nightmare start to the season with defeats to Brighton and Brentford, Erik ten Hag's side have won their last three games - beating Liverpool, Southampton and Leicester City. A win for the Red Devils could take them into the top four.
In terms of team selection, Arteta will be hoping to have Aaron Ramsdale and Martin Odegaard available. Ramsdale felt a niggle in his leg in the midweek win over Aston Villa, while Odegaard was substituted in the victory after sustaining a knock. Both injuries are minor, and Arteta is hopeful that the duo will be involved at Old Trafford.
Oleksandr Zinchenko has missed out on the last two matchday squads through injury. It's understood that Zinchenko has suffered a slight sprain in his left knee, and Arteta confirmed on Friday that he hasn't been in training.
A lack of time on the training ground could see the Ukrainian miss out on the squad again, although it is understood that he has travelled with the squad.
