Arsenal have been handed a huge injury boost ahead of the second leg of the Champions League round of 16 tie against Bayer Leverkusen at the Emirates Stadium.
The Gunners returned to winning ways in the Premier League last weekend with a 2-0 victory over Everton at the Emirates. They will now be aiming to reach the last eight of the Champions League.
The scores are level after the first leg against Leverkusen on the road (1-1) and the onus is on the Gunners to beat the Bundesliga outfit to progress further in the elite European competition.
Ahead of tomorrow’s encounter, manager Mikel Arteta has confirmed that Leandro Trossard is painfree and he is available to face Kasper Hjulmand’s side.
While Trossard is deemed fit, the Gunners will be without the services of Martin Odegaard and Jurrien Timber for the midweek encounter.
Odegaard and Timber are nursing knee and groin injuries. They have made good progress but the midweek game will come too soon for them.
