Arsenal team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Tottenham Hotspur

Sports Mole rounds up all of Arsenal's latest injury and suspension news ahead of Saturday's Premier League North London derby with Tottenham Hotspur.

Premier League leaders Arsenal make their return to domestic action following the international break with Saturday's visit of Tottenham Hotspur for the North London derby.

The Gunners went into the September hiatus one point clear at the top of the table after William Saliba, Gabriel Jesus and Fabio Vieira struck in a 3-0 win over Brentford on September 18.

Both Tottenham and Manchester City are only one adrift of Mikel Arteta's men in the table, and victory in Saturday's derby would therefore see Arsenal open up a four-point gap over their bitter rivals.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up Arsenal's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the clash with Tottenham, who thumped Leicester City 6-2 last time out.

Oleksandr Zinchenko was not available to represent Ukraine during the international period after picking up a calf problem, but Arsenal are reportedly hopeful that the left-back will be fit for his first North London derby.

Reiss Nelson has not made a single competitive appearance this season after sustaining a thigh injury over the summer, but the attacker is now back in training and could make his return to action in the derby.

Possible return date: October 1 (vs. Tottenham Hotspur)

Thomas Partey had only just returned from a thigh injury against Brentford when he experienced knee discomfort during the international break. The midfielder missed Ghana's defeat to Brazil, but his absence was thought to have been precautionary more than anything else, and he should be fine for the weekend.
