Arsenal have been boosted by the news that Leeds United stars Maximilian Wober and Wilfried Gnonto will not be available for selection on Saturday. The Gunners are preparing to resume their Premier League title race with Manchester City as they look to maintain their eight-point lead at the top of the table.
Mikel Arteta is facing a number of injury concerns of his own ahead of the clash, with William Saliba and Eddie Nketiah yet to return to training. Thomas Partey struggled with injury problems during the international break but was present in training on Thursday afternoon and looks set to be available for selection.
Kieran Tierney was also a minor concern after being substituted during Scotland's 2-0 win against Spain earlier this week, but the left-back was spotted taking part in the session alongside Partey. Gabriel Jesus has had two weeks to build up his fitness after being omitted from Brazil's latest international fixtures and is likely to start against Javi Gravia's side.
