Arsenal team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Olympiacos

Sports Mole rounds up Arsenal's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the second leg of their Europa League last-16 tie with Olympiacos.

Arsenal play host to Olympiacos in the second leg of their Europa League last-32 tie on Thursday night holding a narrow advantage from the opening fixture.

In a game which appeared likely to end goalless heading into the closing stages, Alexandre Lacazette netted a late winner for the Gunners.

Mikel Arteta watched his side build on that narrow success with a thrilling 3-2 victory over Everton in the Premier League on Sunday afternoon.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up Arsenal's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the game at the Emirates Stadium.
