Sports Mole rounds up all of Arsenal's latest injury and suspension news ahead of Sunday's FA Cup first-round clash with Manchester United.

Kicking off their bid for FA Cup crown number 15, Arsenal host defending champions Manchester United at the Emirates on Sunday in the pick of the third-round ties.

The Gunners have failed to make it past the fourth round of the competition since last hoisting the trophy aloft in 2020, when they sank Chelsea 2-1 in an empty Wembley Stadium.

Mikel Arteta's men have already suffered one dose of knockout disappointment this week, suffering a dismal 2-0 home loss to Newcastle United in the first leg of their EFL Cup semi-final.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up all of Arsenal's latest injury and suspension news ahead of their clash with the Red Devils, who stunned Manchester City in last season's FA Cup showpiece to conquer the competition for the 13th time.
