Captain Cesc Fabregas is expected to return to face Newcastle United tomorrow after having recovered from a hamstring strain.
Doubtful however, is winger Andrey Arshavin (virus), midfielders Denilson (groin) and Alex Song (calf).
Midfielder Jack Wilshere however, has returned from suspension.
It could be that manager Arsène Wenger will be forced to field both Fabregas and Wilshere in the same team, a mouth watering prospect to most Arsenal fans.
Goalkeeper Manuel Almunia, centre-half Thomas Vermaelen, midfielder Abou Diaby and left-back Kieran Gibbs are all still out.
Long-term absentees Aaron Ramsey and Robin van Persie are both close to a return.
