Arsenal receive triple injury boost for Watford clash

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger could rely on the services of Francis Coquelin, Danny Welbeck and Mesut Ozil when the club make the short league trip to Watford on October 14.

Coquelin sustained a hamstring injury during the 3-0 triumph over Bournemouth last month while Danny Welbeck was substituted late in the 0-0 draw at Chelsea with a groin strain.

Ozil has also been struggling with a minor knee injury and this kept him out of the league games versus Chelsea and Brighton & Hove Albion.

According to Football.London, the trio will be deemed fit for the Hornets game after the international break, although Arsene Wenger will make the final decision on their fitness.

Skipper Laurent Koscielny is also recovering from his Achilles problem, but the match against Marco Silva's side could come early for the France international.

Arsenal went unbeaten through the entire month of September, and they are now six points behind table toppers Manchester City in fifth place.
