Pundit makes Mesut Ozil prediction ahead of Premier League clash

Arsenal are aiming to return to winning ways after their draw with Manchester United in the game against Huddersfield Town. However, Mesut Ozil, 30, who was ruled out of the north London derby with a back problem and also missed Wednesday’s draw with Manchester United, looks set to miss out once more. A number of pundits have suggested Arsenal look stronger without the former Germany international and Paul Merson does not believe Emery should bring Ozil back into the team even if he is fit. “Will Ozil return for Arsenal this weekend?” he told Sky Sports. “I don't see Unai Emery bringing him back in now as Arsenal will try to play in the same vein as they did against Tottenham and Manchester United. Huddersfield were banged unlucky against Bournemouth and I also thought they were unlucky against Brighton with Steve Mounie's sending off. However, I don't see anything but an Arsenal win. They will have too much for David Wagner's side at the Emirates.”
