Arsenal team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Watford

Sports Mole rounds up all of Arsenal's latest injury and suspension news ahead of Sunday's Premier League clash with Watford.

Arsenal will aim to record their fourth Premier League win on the bounce when they travel to Watford for Sunday's battle.

The Gunners boosted their Champions League hopes with a smash-and-grab victory over Wolverhampton Wanderers last week, with Nicolas Pepe and a Jose Sa own goal cancelling out Hwang Hee-chan's opener.

Mikel Arteta's side remain sixth in the table heading into the weekend, although their top-four rivals in West Ham United and Manchester United face the top two in Liverpool and Manchester City respectively.

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