Arsenal suffer double injury blow for Sunderland clash

Arsenal duo ruled out of Sunderland clash

Arsenal have suffered a double injury blow ahead of the Premier League clash against Sunderland on the road on Saturday, as per The Athletic.

The Gunners picked up a 2-0 win over Burnley last weekend, but the game came at a cost with Viktor Gyokeres sustaining a muscle injury.

The Swede has been ruled out of today's Champions League clash against Slavia Prague, and won't be available against the Black Cats either.

Alongside him, Gabriel Martinelli is out for the weekend clash too. The Brazilian picked up a muscle problem against Crystal Palace.

Both players won't travel to the Stadium of Light on Saturday but they could recover in time to face Tottenham Hotspur after the November international break.

Alongside the duo, the likes of Martin Odegaard, Noni Madueke and Kai Havertz could also make the matchday squad for the derby against Spurs at the Emirates Stadium.

Gabriel Jesus is also working his way back to full fitness after a serious knee injury, but the Brazil international may not feature until mid-December, as per reports.
