After reclaiming a place in the top four of the Premier League at the weekend, Arsenal will now be aiming to tighten their grip on a Champions League spot when they play host to Bournemouth on Wednesday evening.
The Gunners' 2-0 win over Southampton, combined with Manchester United only claiming a point from their game against Liverpool, leaves Unai Emery's side with their European destiny in their own hands.
With Southampton ticked off and Tottenham Hotspur still to come later this week, Emery may decide to rotate his side for the midweek visit of Bournemouth.
Here, Sports Mole looks at Arsenal's latest injury and suspension news ahead of their encounter with the Cherries.
