Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has been handed a number of fresh fitness concerns ahead of Sunday's Premier League showdown with Nottingham Forest at the Emirates Stadium.

The Gunners lost 2-0 to PSV Eindhoven in the Europa League in midweek, where Aaron Ramsdale filled in for the injured Matt Turner and did not cover himself in glory for the hosts' second goal on the night.

Ramsdale will hold his place here regardless, but Gabriel Magalhaes has now emerged as a fresh doubt after he was seen limping back to the team coach with an unspecified injury.

With Oleksandr Zinchenko still doubtful due to his calf injury, Arteta could bring Kieran Tierney back into the fold at left-back, as Ben White and William Saliba form the centre-back pairing. Takehiro Tomiyasu would therefore shift over to the right flank after a trial period on the left.

Mohamed Elneny is still absent for the long term, so Granit Xhaka and Thomas Partey will continue in the engine room, as Albert Sambi Lokonga makes way following an underwhelming showing at the Philips Stadion.

Emile Smith Rowe also remains out with his groin injury, while Marquinhos is battling to recover from illness in time for the game, but Arteta has settled on a consistent attacking line.

For the second time in two matches, Bukayo Saka was booked for diving on Thursday night, and the England international will now come back into the first XI alongside Martin Odegaard, Gabriel Martinelli and Gabriel Jesus, the latter of whom has now gone six games without finding the back of the net.
