Arsenal team news ahead of Leicester City match

Unai Emery ‘s side are in sparkling form having won nine games in all competitions – six successive wins. Now the Gunners sit fourth in the table, just two points behind leaders Manchester City. If Emery’s side win Leicester City, they will make it 10 wins in a row on Monday night. Ahead of the game Arsenal fans are impatient to get to know team news and updates with many players still on international duties. Everyone’s attention is now on Greek  defender , who was forced off after just 45 minutes in Greece Nations League match against Finland. Later it was revealed that the 30-year-old suffered an ankle sprain, although there have been no suggestions yet as to the extent of the injury. Still, there’s a hope that Sokratis can recover in time for Monday’s game against Leicester with fellow centre-backs Laurent Koscielny and Konstantinos Mavropanos still sidelined. So Arsenal’s options at centre back will be somewhat limited although Rob Holding has been in fine form recently and started the 5-1 win at Fulham win. Mesut Ozil will return on Monday to bolster the Arsenal attack having missed out at Craven Cottage due to back spasms. Danny Welbeck and Petr Cech are continuing to be assessed at London Colney Lucas Torreira is due to arrive back at London Colney on Thursday having played for Uruguay in Japan on Tuesday afternoon.
