Arsenal have been handed a big injury blow ahead of the Premier League clash against Burnley on the road tomorrow.
The Gunners are presently top of the standings with 22 points, four ahead of second-placed Bournemouth after nine games.
They will be aiming to extend the gap on Saturday. Ahead of the trip to Burnley, manager Mikel Arteta has confirmed a key absence.
Gabriel Martinelli picked up a possible muscle injury against Crystal Palace last weekend and missed the midweek League Cup game.
Arteta has revealed that Martinelli has not recovered yet from the setback and the game will come too soon for the Brazil international.
William Saliba was also missing against Brighton & Hove Albion in midweek, but the Frenchman could yet make the game.
The centre-back will be assessed in the coming hours, and a late decision will be made over his availability for the Clarets clash.
Arsenal are huge favourites to Scott Parker's side on the road.
