Mikel Arteta has given an update on his side's team news ahead of Thursday's North London Derby. The Gunners go into the game at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium knowing that they have the chance to secure Champions League qualification for next season with a victory.
As a result they will want all their first team players, but know that they will already be without key players Thomas Partey and Kieran Tierney. They have at least been bolstered by the return of Takehiro Tomiyasu to the starting XI in wins over West Ham and Leeds.
However, Ben White missed both those games and was replaced by Rob Holding in the starting XI. Meanwhile, Bukayo Saka limped off with what was described as a minor injury in both games too. Now Arteta has provided the latest on the England internationals' fitness prior to the crucial clash with Spurs.
