Gabriel Jesus could be absent for Arsenal when they face Liverpool at the Emirates Stadium on Sunday, October 9.
The striker may have turned the Gunners into table toppers since making the move from Manchester City to North London, but Arsenal could soon be without their star man for a match.
Jesus has picked up four yellow cards so far this season and one more will see the Brazilian suspended for one match. Arsenal's next match is a clash against bitter rivals Tottenham Hotspur.

The Brazilian has made seven goal contributions in as many games as Arsenal moved back to the top of the league with a 3-0 win over Brentford on Sunday, but he also received his fourth booking of the campaign.
With Arsenal set to take on Tottenham before hosting Liverpool, Jesus will have to be careful to avoid a card in what is often a fiery affair when the two North London rivals come together.
If Jesus was to miss the Liverpool match then it is likely Eddie Nketiah would come into the starting XI to take on Jurgen Klopp 's side.
