Arsenal return to Premier League action on Sunday afternoon with a highly-anticipated showdown against rivals Manchester United.
Both teams have endured indifferent starts to the new top-flight campaign, with the 11th-placed Gunners sitting two points and four positions above their hosts.
Despite being able to rest a number of players for the Europa League encounter with Dundalk on Thursday evening, Mikel Arteta still has a number of injury concerns.
Here, Sports Mole rounds up Arsenal's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the visit to Old Trafford at the weekend.

Luiz was forced off in the early stages of the second half against Leicester City with a thigh problem. As well as quickly ruling the Brazilian out of the meeting with Dundalk, Arteta hinted that the centre-back had little chance of being fit for the trip to the North-West.
