Arsenal faces Chelsea on Tuesday
night but will be without several first-team players for the Premier League
trip to Stamford Bridge after delivering an injury update. Arsenal has
confirmed that Sead Kolasinac and Reiss Nelson will both miss the clash against
Chelsea on Tuesday night. You can purchase online Premier
League Tickets from our website, around the world to enjoy its terrific
performances.
The pair missed the 1-1 draw against
Sheffield United at the weekend, and will again be absent as Mikel Arteta's
side travel to west London.
The Gunners have confirmed that
Kolasinac is still recovering from the left thigh strain that kept him out of
their Emirates clash with the Blades, while Nelson is out with a hamstring
problem.
Both are expected to return to full
training during the winter break, meaning they will also miss the clash against
Burnley on 2 February.
Sokratis was also left out of the
side on Saturday after suffering from illness, but Arsenal confirmed that the
Greek defender will be assessed ahead of the midweek clash. With Kieran Tierney
still in rehabilitation after his shoulder problem, Bukayo Saka is again set to
deputies at left-back against Chelsea.
The teenager started against
Sheffield United on Saturday, and Gunner's boss Mikel Arteta was full of praise
for his performance.
Arteta talk
"I think he could (have a future
at left-back) because he’s willing to learn, he is applying himself the big
time he is someone that has never played (that position) before but he’s really
trying to do it as well as possible," Arteta said.
Elsewhere, Arsenal could make changes in
attack for the Chelsea clash, after Eddie Nketiah returned to the Arsenal squad
at the weekend. After being recalled from his loan spell at Leeds United, the
striker was set to be sent out to another Championship club, but after watching
him in training, Arteta opted against sending Nketia on another short-term
deal.
Speaking to reporters, Arteta
admitted that the forward has a chance of featuring from the start at Stamford
Bridge. We will assess who is in the best conditions to play in who is training
well and we'll make the decision based on that.
