Arsenal trio set to return from injury this weekend

Arsenal are set to receive a triple injury boost this weekend, as Hector Bellerin, Mesut Ozil and Kieran Gibbs are set to return to action this weekend.

Mesut Ozil has missed the last three matches with illness but he finally rejoined the team the first-team this week. 

Hector Bellerin, on the other hand, picked up a knock last week and was not risked for the FA Cup game last weekend against Preston but it is thought to only be a minor injury – he should be available. 

Kieran Gibbs has not featured since he sustained a Boxing Day knee injury but he has progressed very well and could push Nacho Monreal for a starting spot. With Monreal available, Gibbs will be available for action but will likely start on the bench. 

In other news Theo Walcott is not far off a return while Danny Welbeck is being assessed following his first start of the season on Saturday.
