Arsenal team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Standard Liege

Arsenal head into Thursday's Europa League fixture with Standard Liege with an opportunity to put themselves clear at the top of Group F.

Despite making numerous changes for the trip to Eintracht Frankfurt, Unai Emery watched his side record a 3-0 victory over the Bundesliga outfit.

While Standard also got a win on the board two weeks ago against Vitoria de Guimaraes, the Premier League side will still make several alterations given their current hectic schedule.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up the latest injury and suspension news for the Gunners ahead of welcoming the Belgian team.
