Rice to face Bournemouth?

Arsenal handed major boost ahead of Bournemouth clash

03 January 2026 - 17:00

Arsenal have been handed a major boost ahead of the Premier League clash against Bournemouth on the road this evening.

  • Chelsea set to announce new manager tomorrow
  • Man Utd make big decision on January signings



  • The Gunners are currently top of the league with a three-point gap and can extend the advantage with a positive result.

    Ahead of the encounter, they have received a massive boost with midfielder Declan Rice part of the travelling group.

    A final decision will be made on his involvement. There is a high possibility that he will make the matchday squad.

    Rice was close to being fit for the 4-1 win versus Aston Villa, but Arsenal did not want to take any unnecessary risks with him.

    He was involved in full training earlier yesterday and could be drafted straight into the starting XI if he is deemed fit to play.

    Arsenal can temporarily go six points clear at the top of the table with a win, but the gap will be reduced if Manchester City beat Chelsea tomorrow.
