Jean-Clair Todibo was forced off injured in the win at Newcastle and is expected to miss out, with Kostas Mavropanos on hand to step in. Niclas Fullkrug remains out with a calf injury and Mohamed Kudus serves the final match of a five-game ban.

The Gunners would be hoping to have Gabriel Magalhaes’ services. The centre-back suffered a late knock in the Champions League game and is doubtful. Should he be available, he will form the heart of the defence alongside William Saliba.

West Ham United face a quick turnaround as they return to Premier League action when Arsenal make the trip to east London on Saturday. Julen Lopetegui’s men go into the contest having produced arguably their best performance of the season to defeat Newcastle United 2-0 in their own backyard on Monday.
