Arsenal injury, suspension list vs. Manchester City

Sports Mole rounds up Arsenal's latest injury and suspension news ahead of Wednesday's Premier League encounter with Manchester City.

Arsenal take on Manchester City in the Premier League on Wednesday night with the opportunity to make a significant move up the standings.

When football was halted due to the coronavirus pandemic, the Gunners were left sitting in ninth position, eight points adrift of fourth-placed Chelsea.

However, should Mikel Arteta's side prevail against last year's champions, they will move level on points with Wolverhampton Wanderers, who currently occupy sixth.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up Arsenal's injury and suspension news ahead of the trip to the Etihad Stadium.

Status: Minor doubt
Type of injury: Ankle
Possible return date: June 17 (vs. Man City)

Although Torreira had initially been due to miss the rest of the campaign with a fractured ankle, he is now on course to represent the Gunners during the run-in. However, Wednesday's contest may come too soon for the Uruguay international, and it would be a surprise if he played any part.


Calum Chambers

Status: Out
Type of injury: Knee
Possible return date: Unknown

Having sustained a serious knee injury in January, Chambers remains on course for a return later in the year. As it stands, September has been pencilled in as the period when the North Londoners may get the defender back in action.


Cedric Soares

Status: Major doubt
Type of injury: Facial
Possible return date: Unknown

Cedric is yet to make an appearance for Arsenal since his loan move from Southampton in January. Reports have suggested that his absence could continue after sustaining a broken nose during a practice match. While the Portugal international may feature in the coming weeks, do not expect to see the full-back on Wednesday night.


ARSENAL'S SUSPENSION LIST

Arsenal have no players suspended for this match.
