Mikel Arteta confirms major injury boost for Forest game
Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has confirmed a major injury boost ahead of the Premier League clash against Nottingham Forest at the Emirates Stadium.
The Gunners have had an average start to the campaign and they are already playing catch-up in the title race with a nine-point gap to Liverpool.
The club are in a must-win territory at the moment. They can't afford to drop points over the festive schedule if they want to challenge for the title.
Aheas of tomorrow's game against Forest, Arteta has provided good news on the injury front by confirming that Bukayo Saka and Declan Rice are fit.
Riccardo Calafiori has also recovered from a knee problem while Leandro Trossard is anticipated to return too after an injury scare on Belgium duty.
Arsenal have a good record against Forest at home, but Nuno's side can't be taken lightly, having beaten Liverpool at Anfield earlier this campaign.
The Gunners can't afford to be complacent in tomorrow's game.
