Arsenal defender William Saliba looks likely to miss the upcoming Premier League clash against Liverpool on the road.
The France international picked up a back injury against Sporting last month and he has yet to return to training for the Gunners.
The centre-back has missed the last two league games against Crystal Palace and Leeds United and looks set to be absent again.
The news will come as a huge blow for the Gunners, who have struggled to beat Liverpool away from home in the last decade.
The Gunners have not won against the Merseyside giants at Anfield since 2012. They face a huge test against them on Sunday afternoon.
Arsenal are currently top of the league with an eight-point lead over Manchester City. However, the Cityzens have a game in hand.
Hence, the title race is well and truly open. The Cityzens could benefit if the Gunners fail to beat Jurgen Klopp's side on the road this weekend.
