Arsenal team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Brentford

Sports Mole rounds up Arsenal's latest injury and suspension news ahead of their Premier League clash with Burnley on Sunday.

Arsenal return to Premier League action on Saturday afternoon when they square off against Brentford at the Emirates Stadium.

Last weekend, the Gunners had no fixture as a result of Chelsea competing at the Club World Cup, and it has left the club sitting in sixth place in the standings.

However, with games in hand and having recently edged out newfound rivals Wolverhampton Wanderers in their last outing, Mikel Arteta will be confident of strengthening their bid for Champions League qualification.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up all of Arsenal's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the clash with the Bees.


Takehiro Tomiyasu

Type of injury: Calf
Possible return date: February 19 (vs. Brentford)

Tomiyasu has recently been absent with a calf injury, resulting in the Japanese missing the recent game at Wolves. However, having returned to training this week, the right-sided defender may be selected among the replacements at the weekend.


Bernd Leno
