Arsenal team and injury news

Mikel Arteta faces some injury concerns within his squad heading into the clash with PSG that will leave some key Arsenal stars out of action.

Mikel Merino, Martin Odegaard, Takehiro Tomiyasu, Oleksandr Zinchenko and Kieran Tierney all look set to miss out through injury.

Riccardo Calafiori is a new injury concern after picking up a knock to the knee late in the Premier League win over Leicester City.

The rest of the squad looks to be fit and available for an important tie in the Champions League.

PSG team and injury news

PSG boss Luis Enrique could be missing as many as eight players from his squad travelling to London as injuries rock his team.

Goalkeeper Gianluigi Donarumma has missed the past few games through a muscle issue, alongside defenders Lucas Hernandez and Presnel Kimpembe.

Marco Asensio, Goncalo Ramos, and Desire Doue have also been missing, while Nuno Mendes missed out over the weekend due to illness.

It meant that PSG could only name two senior players on the bench for their 3-1 win over Rennes.
