Sports Mole rounds up all of Arsenal's latest injury and suspension news ahead of Saturday's Premier League clash with Nottingham Forest.

Arsenal will begin their 2023-24 Premier League campaign with a clash against Nottingham Forest on Saturday afternoon.

The Gunners finished second behind Manchester City in the table last season, but they gained some revenge on Sunday by beating Pep Guardiola's side on penalties to win the Community Shield.

Mikel Arteta's side have been able to make some impressive signings this summer and will be expected to launch another strong challenge for the title in the coming season.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up Arsenal's injury and suspension news ahead of the contest with Forest, who again face a tough battle to avoid relegation to the Championship.
