Sports Mole rounds up all of Arsenal's injury and suspension news ahead of Tuesday's Champions League clash with Shakhtar Donetsk.

Arsenal have many wrongs to right when they return to Champions League action at home to Shakhtar Donetsk on Tuesday evening.

Mikel Arteta's men were condemned to an excruciating first loss of the season at the weekend, falling 2-0 to Bournemouth in a result that denied them the chance to go top of the Premier League table.

However, the Gunners bested Paris Saint-Germain by that exact scoreline in their most recent European affair and sit on a healthy four points from their first two games in the new-look Champions League.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up all of Arsenal's latest injury and suspension news ahead of their clash with Shakhtar, who lost 3-0 to Atalanta in their second Champions League match of the season.


Jurrien Timber

Status: Minor doubt
Type of injury: Muscle
Possible return date: October 22 (vs. Shakhtar)

A muscular problem has sidelined Jurrien Timber for Arsenal's recent Premier League bouts with Bournemouth and Southampton, and the Dutchman's availability for Tuesday's game remains clouded in uncertainty.


Martin Odegaard

Status: Out
Type of injury: Ankle
Possible return date: October 27 (vs. Liverpool)

Arteta appeared to deny recent claims that Martin Odegaard had suffered a setback in his recovery from an ankle problem, and an appearance against Liverpool on October 27 is not thought to be entirely out of the question, but he will not be fit for midweek.


Takehiro Tomiyasu

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

On the other hand, the Gunners boss confirmed that Takehiro Tomiyasu's previous knee injury had flared up, and it is not clear when the Japan international might be back in contention.


Kieran Tierney

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

Kieran Tierney has not played since picking up a hamstring injury at Euro 2024, and there is still no update on his condition, but he is not in Arteta's long-term plans anyway.


Bukayo Saka

Status: Minor doubt
Type of injury: Thigh
Possible return date: October 22 (vs. Shakhtar)

The thigh issue that Saka sustained on England duty was serious enough to keep him out of the Bournemouth loss, and there are no guarantees that the 23-year-old will be able to return for the Champions League either.


ARSENAL'S SUSPENSION LIST

Arsenal have no players suspended for this match, as William Saliba's red card from the Bournemouth defeat only applies to domestic matches.
