ARSENAL return to Champions League action off the back of two consecutive defeats in all competitions – and Spanish giants Sevilla will be hoping to make it three.
A chance of the Gunners lifting a League Cup for the first time since 1993 went up in smoke last Wednesday courtesy of West Ham.
And the week progressively got worse as a controversial Anthony Gordon goal saw Mikel Arteta’s men suffer a defeat on Tyneside just four days later.
However, all attention can now be switched to the Champions League where a win would see the Gunners take a massive step in qualifying for the knockout stages.
Furthermore, Arsenal will be confident that they can bounce back against Sevilla having escaped Ramon Sanchez-Pizjuan Stadium with a win in the reverse fixture.
The one recent piece of positivity for Mikel Arteta in the last week is not picking too many fresh injury concerns.
But the Gunners gaffer will still be without the quartet of Gabriel Jesus, Thomas Partey, Emile Smith Rowe and Jurrien Timber.
While Martin Odegaard is a doubt after missing out on the Newcastle defeat with a hip problem.
Elsewhere, Sevilla boss Diego Alonso will be sweating over the fitness of defending veteran Sergio Ramos and Marcao who both were unavailable on the weekend due to muscle injuries.
