Arsenal set for big injury boost ahead of Saturday?

Partey fit to face Leicester?

Arsenal could be handed a big injury boost ahead of the Premier League clash against Leicester City this weekend.



The Gunners recently returned to winning ways with a 4-2 victory at Aston Villa and they will be eyeing another three points on Saturday.

Ahead of the trip to the King Power Stadium, they are set to receive a massive boost with Thomas Partey expected to be fit for the game.

Partey has been sidelined for the past two outings with a leg injury. In his absence, Jorginho has played in the number six position.

The Italian has been superb in filling the void and he made the difference at Villa Park. His long-range strike led to the match winner.

Despite his superb exploits, Partey could be drafted straight into the XI if manager Mikel Arteta considers him ready for the Foxes clash.

The Gunners are currently two points ahead of Manchester City at the top of the table but they have a game in hand over the Cityzens.
