Arsenal team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Bournemouth

Arsenal will be out to record their fourth Premier League win on the bounce when they welcome Bournemouth to the Emirates Stadium on Saturday afternoon.

The Gunners ensured that their game in hand was a worthwhile one on Wednesday evening, thumping Everton 4-0 thanks to Gabriel Martinelli (2), Martin Odegaard and Bukayo Saka.

As a result, Arsenal have re-established a five-point lead over Manchester City at the top of the Premier League table, having taken 60 points from just 25 games so far this season.
