Aaron Ramsey (hamstring), Mikel Arteta (ankle) and Mathieu Debuchy (shoulder) are definitely out of the clash, but could be joined by Mathieu Flamini, Hector Bellerin and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain on the sidelines.

The latter trio are expected to undergo fitness tests tomorrow ahead of the Selhurst Park match, with a win potentially enough to send the Gunners into the top four.

Wenger said on the injury situation: "Ramsey is still out. He is nine days into his three-week rehab. The two other injuries are Arteta and Debuchy.

"Apart from that we have some uncertainties about Flamini and Bellerin - they are doubtful for Saturday. Everybody else is OK.

"Bellerin is his ankle and Flamini has a tight hamstring. We’ll see. We’ll have tests tomorrow."

On Oxlade-Chamberlain, he added: "He is close. He will join in normal training today."
