Arsenal will soon have the chance to kickstart their season against Nottingham Forest next week as they look to return to winning ways.
The Gunners have gone three games without tasting victory after back-to-back defeats against Newcastle and Inter Milan was followed with a 1-1 draw at Chelsea last weekend.
Arteta is currently facing an injury crisis after a number of concerns in his squad – including Bukayo Saka and Declan Rice – having only just welcomed captain Martin Odegaard back from a long-term injury lay-off.
He’ll be confident of securing the three points against Forest next week as he eagerly awaits the return of his players from international duty. Mirror Football has picked out some of the biggest headlines relating to the Gunners this week.
Arteta’s injury boost
Arteta recently spoke of the club’s “nightmare” injury problems that have mounted up of late and said he was praying that he had fewer issues to contend with after the international break.
Well according to Football London, the Spaniard’s prayers may have been answered after they reported that up to five players are set to return for the Forest clash.
It says Raheem Sterling – who could not play against parent club Chelsea last week – will come back into the fold along with Saka and Rice, despite both players missing England duty after picking up knocks against the Blues.
Predicted Arsenal lineup: Raya; White, Saliba, Gabriel, Timber; Partey, Merino, Rice; Saka, Havertz, Martinelli.
