Arsenal striker set to miss Tottenham Hotspur clash

Arsenal are set to be without the services of Viktor Gyokeres when they entertain Tottenham Hotspur in the Premier League this weekend, according to HandofArsenal.

The Gunners are presently four points ahead of second-placed Manchester City in the standings, and will be aiming to extend their advantage during the hectic festive period.

They are due to host Spurs at the weekend. Ahead of the game, HandofArsenal has revealed that Gyokeres is doubtful, having yet to recover from a muscle issue.

The Sweden international missed two games before the November international break, but it was predicted that he would return for the resumption in late November.

However, the north London derby is set to come too soon for the former Sporting CP man. He is now predicted to return in early December.

The Gunners are likely to face a similar situation with Gabriel Martinelli, Kai Havertz, Martin Odegaard, Gabriel Jesus and Noni Madueke.

Madueke could be the first to return among the injured attackers. Gabriel Magalhaes, on the other hand, is sidelined until January with a groin issue.
