Arsenal are expected to remain without both Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Alexandre Lacazette for Sunday's Premier League London derby with Chelsea at the Emirates.
The two strikers missed the opening-day defeat to Brentford after testing positive for coronavirus, and while Aubameyang has an outside chance of featuring, Lacazette is set to remain unavailable.
Out-of-favour players Alex Runarsson and Willian also contracted the virus before Friday's defeat, and Mikel Arteta has admitted that he was "surprised" at the decision to give the game the go-ahead.
Arsenal could announce the arrival of Aaron Ramsdale from Sheffield United in time to face the Blues, but Bernd Leno will expect to retain his spot in goal for the time being.
Pablo Mari and Ben White did not enjoy the best of evenings at the Brentford Community Stadium but will link up once more here with Gabriel Magalhaes out injured, while Thomas Partey's absence could see Albert Sambi Lokonga get the nod in midfield once more.
Arsenal announced the arrival of Martin Odegaard on a permanent deal on Friday morning, but with visa issues holding up his second debut for the club, Emile Smith Rowe will continue in the number 10 role for now.
Bukayo Saka should be fit enough to start after a bright cameo appearance on the opening day, with Nicolas Pepe likely to feature on the opposite wing as Arteta works around the absence of Aubameyang.
Folarin Balogun struggled to make things happen up top against Brentford, and Gabriel Martinelli is reportedly being readied to lead the line against the European champions.
Arsenal possible starting lineup: Leno; Chambers, White, Mari, Tierney; Xhaka, Lokonga; Saka, Smith Rowe, Pepe; Martinelli
