Team news
Arsene Wenger's injury woes have been given a serious boost this week, as Per Mertesacker, Danny Welbeck and Hector Bellerin have returned to the team's training sessions. Nevertheless, the trio isn't expected to be included in the squad. Following their 4-1 win against Basel this Tuesday, the French coach might consider giving Lucas Pérez a starting nod, as the Spaniard scored his first-ever hat-trick with the Gunners in Switzerland.

The away team will also have a large amount of absences due to injury, while players like Bruno Martins Indi and Marko Arnautovic could feature if they pass a late fitness test. If they can't be around, the Potters will surely rely on goalie Lee Grant, who has been superb guarding the net in all of his nine previous games.
