Arsenal team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Brighton & Hove Albion

Sports Mole rounds up all of Arsenal's latest injury and suspension news ahead of Saturday's Premier League clash with Brighton & Hove Albion.

Arsenal will endeavour to claim their fourth Premier League victory on the bounce when they meet high-flying Brighton & Hove Albion at the Amex Stadium on Saturday evening.

The Gunners took the spoils in a pulsating North London derby with Tottenham Hotspur at the weekend, with Emile Smith Rowe, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Bukayo Saka all netting in a 3-1 success.

Mikel Arteta's side seem to have consigned their poor start to history and have risen to 10th in the table following their derby success, but they did not come out of the game unscathed.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up all of Arsenal's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the contest.

Status: Out
Type of injury: Knee
Possible return date: Unknown

Granit Xhaka returned to the first XI against Spurs after serving a three-game suspension but injured his knee after being caught by a falling Lucas Moura in the second half. Arteta has admitted that he is "pretty worried" about the midfielder's injury, so it would be a shock to see him feature this weekend.


ARSENAL'S SUSPENSION LIST

Arsenal have no players suspended for this match.
