Three set for return but Hector Bellerin will miss out
Arsenal have been boosted with the news that three players could return to full-fitness in time for Sunday’s North London Derby – but they will be without right-back Hector Bellerin.
The Gunners currently have 10 first-team players out injured, but they should welcome back David Ospina, Mikel Arteta and Laurent Koscielny in time for the match against Tottenham Hotspur.
However, they will be without Bellerin, who is still recovering from a groin injury.
Three Returning
The right-back missed the mid-week clash with Bayern Munich, as did Koscielny, but the Frenchman has a 80% chance of returning in time to face Spurs.
Ospina and Arteta aren’t expected to feature at the Emirates Stadium, but they should return to the match-day squad, taking their place on the subs bench.
