Arsenal could welcome back Emile Smith Rowe and Takehiro Tomiyasu against Leicester today, while new signing Fabio Vieira may also be in line for a debut.
The three players have all been struggling with fitness issues of late, but they have taken part in training this week.
As a result, they could feature against Leicester at Emirates Stadium this afternoon, although Mikel Arteta was coy on exactly who would play.

Arsenal vs Leicester prediction
Arsenal are brimming with confidence while Leicester have started a season with the mood darker than it has been for some time.
The Gunners are primed to take advantage, especially against a team who won just once away from home in the league last season.
An early goal and this could be done quickly.
