    However, he has now returned to full-contact training with his Gunners teammates not on international duty and is expected to be available for the next league encounter against the Foxes.

    Ozil has improved on his scoring potential under the tutelage of Emery tghis campaign and he has already contributed three goals from eight appearances for the Gunners in all competitions.

    Meanwhile, Arsenal are currently occupying the fourth position in the league standings ahead of cross-town rivals Tottenham Hotspur after going through a nine-match winning streak across all competitions - which includes six straight victories in the top-flight.
