Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has given injury updates ahead of the Champions League big game against Bayern Munich this midweek.
The Gunners are looking for a win against the Bundesliga Champions tomorrow night at the Emirates Stadium.
This game would be one of the most important game of the season for the home side as a loss against the German club could end their Champions League hopes.
Frenchman Arsene Wegner has no new problems to deal with ahead of this game. Jack Wilshere, Tomas Rosicky and Danny Welbeck remain on the sidelines.
Center-back Gabriel Paulista who missed the last Premier League game against Watford is now back. He was out through illness. Despite of his return Per Mertesacker and Laurent Koscielny could continue to start at the heart of defence.
Wenger who told that he could be resting Mesut Ozil or Alexis Sanchez has now changed his mind, he would be starting both of them.
Wenger answered when asked about Ozil and Sanchez: “Certainly not unless I have a very bad sleepless night and get it wrong.”
“They should play tomorrow. I don’t think it’s a risk.”
The boss is fully focused on Premier League campaign this season but despite of it he would be starting with the best possible lineup.
While, goalkeeper David Ospina remains out with shoulder injury. Petr Cech is likely to make his first Champions League appearance for the Gunners since his move.
