Sports Mole rounds up all of Arsenal’s injury and suspension news ahead of Tuesday’s Champions League clash with Sporting Lisbon.
Refreshed and rejuvenated after the international break, Arsenal resume their Champions League adventure away to Sporting Lisbon on Tuesday evening.
The Gunners ended a four-game winless streak in the Premier League on Saturday afternoon, conquering Nottingham Forest 3-0 thanks to efforts from Bukayo Saka, Thomas Partey and Ethan Nwaneri.
However, a 1-0 loss to Inter Milan in their most recent Champions League affair leaves them outside the coveted top eight places in 12th spot in the 36-team table, albeit just two points adrift of the automatic qualification berths.
Here, Sports Mole rounds up all of Arsenal’s latest injury and suspension news ahead of their clash with Sporting, who knocked the Gunners out of the 2022-23 Europa League and now prepare to play their first European game without Ruben Amorim.
