Mikel Arteta says Arsenal trio are doubtful to face Brentford

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has revealed that three players are doubtful to face Brentford in the Premier League tomorrow.

The Gunners are currently six points clear at the top of the standings, but the gap could reduce if second-placed Manchester City beat Fulham tonight.

Hence, tomorrow's trip to the Bees appears a must-win. Ahead of the encounter, Arteta has provided some mixed news on the injury front.

Martin Odegaard and Bukayo Saka have been nursing minor injuries over the last few games and the duo will need to be assessed ahead of the derby.

Similarly, Leandro Trossard is not guaranteed to feature. The Belgian sustained a minor knock against Sunderland and was substituted late.A

Arteta has acknowledged that a final decision will be made on the trio based on a late fitness test ahead of the London derby on the road.

The Gunners have won in their last four trips to the Gtech Community Stadium, but face a tougher challenge this time around.
