Arsenal confirm double injury boost ahead of Aston Villa clash

Arsenal have confirmed a double injury boost ahead of the Premier League clash against Aston Villa on Saturday afternoon.

The Gunners recently lost to Wolverhampton Wanderers by a 2-1 scoreline where they finished with nine men on the pitch.

They will be aiming to return to winning ways at Villa Park tomorrow and ahead of the game, there has been positive news on the injury front.

Mat Ryan has returned to full training after a hip concern and he is in line to make his Gunners debut in goal with Bernd Leno suspended.

Elsewhere, centre-back Pablo Mari has also linked up with his teammates in full training after getting over his calf problem.

With David Luiz suspended, Rob Holding will have a new central defensive partner when the Gunners take on the Villans on the road.

Gabriel replaced his compatriot, who was sent off before half-time in midweek. Mikel Arteta may choose between him and Mari for the position.
